Hi,
 

Since I have found the Hubble Legacy Archive, monsoon won't be as big a
bummer as it has in the past. It is way cool getting to work with data like
this. Detail you can only dream of and smooth as glass. Here is M51, the
Whirlpool Galaxy, from the Hubble Legacy Archive. It is actually a pair of
colliding galaxies about 23 million light years away in the constellation of
Canes Venatici.
