All those pictures of galaxies etc ... they all have filters to make them look super cool . I mean , those filters expose whats there in reality , in ways we generally dont see ... so , I guess thats what they look like . But if you were out for a ride in your space jeep , I dont think thats how you'd see them . I think theyd just be a crap ton of " light dots " .... Am I right or not ?

Did you see that they saw the oldest star we've ever seen yesterday? It doesn't exist anymore because the light we are seeing is from billions and billions and billions and billions of years ago. Wrap your mind around that. That's why I tend my own garden.

That new telescope is seeing all sorts of things. It is absolutely amazing. The scope of creation is humbling.
