Colliding Mice!


Yesterday's Astronomy picture of the day was really beautiful, I thought. And the thought of the distances and forces and time frames involved in the collision of these two galaxies is a bit mind boggling. Makes one wish for FTL, so we could go visit places like this. Ah well. Maybe in some other iteration in the multiverse some other Benjamin actually *does* FTL, or even discovers it. =)

If you click on the photo, you'll go to a bigger version, and if you click the + sign on that version, it will get *very* large.
