Jack already knows about this, but I think it’s worth sharing. ; )

When someone recently read what’s on this link they complained to NASA – stating the artists should be blacklisted.

The response?

The Director of Communications at the Spitzer Centre thanked them – and has today added a new description beneath the image on the NASA, Spitzer and JPL websites – which includes the following.


[quote]In the popular TV series "Babylon 5" it is the location of the featured space station; as a nod to the show, hidden within the background nebula in this artist concept is a small silhouette that may be familiar to fans of the series. Can you find it?[/quote]

    Awesome!! I don't see it. Is this one of those 3D pictures which require you to stare at to see something? ;)

    Try looking in one of the high-resolution versions (from the menu on the left). In the one linked from the article, it's easy to confuse it with a JPEG compression artifact. :)
