This Is Awesome

As in the sense of inspiring awe. What a beautiful thing God's creation is. This pic is the Astronomy Picture of the Day, but I am linking directly to the photographer's website so the pic can be seen after today. I remember once seeing a thunderstorm coming in over Lake Erie, and it was a beautiful sight, but nothing like this once-in-a-lifetime occurrence. Fireworks, lightning and a comet in one place.

You might want to bookmark the APOD. It's especially nice for those keenly interested in stars, black holes, nebulas, planets, all those fascinating things out there.

Thanks BTEG for the link. I did bookmark the site. You are right, it is awe-inspiring. Better than Jack even : )

Just for the record, all APOD images have a unique, static URL. This one is http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap070205.html.

The archive contains all APOD back to 1995!

I've been reading it off-and-on since about 1999 or so.
