Plenty of room at the back.

"In the beginning, the universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry, and is generally considered to have been a bad move."


Right so I've got nothing new for you. I have, however, got something old for you.

Hubble Bubble

It's the Hubble Heritage site where, literally, shit-loads of images from that great telescope in the sky have been enhanced and stored for our perusal.

This is the kind of thing that Kant must've been thinking of when he defined the sublime as "a state of mind elicited by the representation of boundlessness or the infinite." Once we had a barometer for beauty such as this, we can focus our aesthetic judgement upon anything, eh?

Eh?!

Oh.
