(Pin) Wheel in the Sky



Yet another super-duper-extra-mega-colossal-high-res Hubble Space Telescope image. This is the highest resolution image (16,000 by 12,000 pixels) of a spiral galaxy ever made by Hubble. This image of the Pinwheel Galaxy was made from 51 different images collected over the last few years - and released today.

Here are the lower-res versions.
