That was fantastic, thank you for sharing! The amount of stars in that galaxy is amazing, I wonder how many "Goldilocks" planets are present? I wish we were able to explore that galaxy in my lifetime, and I really wish I had the knowledge and skills to contribute to the technology needed to reach the galaxy.

You need 600 tv screens apparently. I'm downloading the original right now. (bottom right in that page)

As it turns out you can't actually view the original image on a normal desktop computer, it just keep saying "not enough memory". So i downloaded the 40k version at 1.7gb and set that as my wallpaper, yeah i know i don't have a 40k monitor but it's still awesome
