Yes, I can see that.
What I find fascinating is the vast distances involved. 220 million light years away/ago*. Mind bogglingly interesting.
* that's 1,293,297,582,100,394,200,000 miles, roughly! 
I wonder if we'll ever get there...

Truly amazing. Thanks for sharing.
I have to say though, it looks like some giant cosmic fart. Especially if you imagine the pictured galaxy as some galactic orifice...
If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.-John Q. Adams
You must accept one of two basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe, or we are not alone in the universe. And either way, the implications are staggering.-Wernher von Braun
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.-Albert Einstein

I am in awe that one galaxy can put out a half a million light year long trail of dust dense enough to be seen 220 million light years away. Wow.

I've got it so bad, that when I'm driving in traffic, I start seeing what cars and trucks will combine together to make a bigger vehicle and make more room on the highway.
2 = pedestrian
4 = bicycle
8 = motorcycle
16 = compact car
32 = mid-size
64 = full size sedan
128 = SUV
256 = mini-bus
512 = school bus/city bus
1024 = semi-truck
2048 = Abrams Main Battle Tank
There are two kinds of people. Those who need closure

Gawd! Don't give 'em ideas - or the next version will have the combinations making a bigger rectangle...
And the existing one was bad enough, it took me a week to get the 2048. Case of sorting out in my head where to "keep" things.

Well time has come and tomorrow I'm leaving for a month long tour of the Western US to include hiking, camping, backpacking and visiting as many National parks as I can in the time allotted.
I will not have internet a majority of the time but will check in from time to time.
Please feed the hamsters and don't let them party to much in my absence.

I'll be staying with my brother in Phoenix when we're not traveling, he's going on short trips with me as work permits and I'll wander off while he's working. But I may use his computer to process some of the pics and will post them, probably on Flickr...I'm MikeHankey1.
