Kirby Dots in Space
Universe
Today: “Astronomers from Case Western Reserve University have
created the deepest, wide-view image of the Virgo Cluster of galaxies,
which shows the faint web of starlight that connects the different
galaxies together.”
It’s a stunning picture. You can find more,
including an explanation of the why there are things that look like Kirby dots in there,
at the CWRU Astronomy
Department’s site. Be sure to check out the video on that site as
well.
