That deer in the middle looks mighty scary.

SA Chris · May 05, 2009, 01:18:51 pm

I think it's a deer in wolf's clothing.

In this tightly cropped image, the NASA space shuttle Atlantis is seen in silhouette during solar transit, Tuesday, May 12, 2009, from Florida. This image was made before Atlantis and the crew of STS-125 had grappled the Hubble Space Telescope. Photo Credit: (NASA/Thierry Legault)

Yeah, t'was, if I remember correctly the time taken for the shuttle to pass in front of the sun was something ridiculous like 0.8secs!

...all the stars you can see in the sky are only in our own galaxy!

Well that wrong. I for one regularly see Andromeda when it's not too cloudy.

So what's a galaxy then? Surely it's just a collection of stars? And yes I do appreciate the pedantry (i.e. I was also missing an apostrophe, and probably a comma or two).
