Sauron is watching.
Second photo has no place in this post.
That first pic reminds me of glados or whatever the name was from “PORTAL”
Are both images real or only the left one ?
If the right one is also real and not a rendering … it’s actually exceedingly beautiful to me
Dog Star
And what’s cool is you look at the first pictures of pluto before compared to now and it’s ridiculous the difference.
Real Photo VS Artist Rendition 👎
That’s not a star.. that’s the eye of Sauron!
I’ve seen clearer images on HBO static.
“Clear”
“Clear”
Sauron is back
Nice try. That’s a dog.
just imagine what the astronomy news will be like in like 70 years
Goddamn amogus star
The universe is incredibly beautiful and so are humanities achievements to view pictures like this
It’s just amazing to me how so many things have to go “right” in order for us to exist as a species and we are so fucking repressive towards eachother that none of this greater stuff matters.
Define clear
don’t we already have that? you can look at pictures of andromeda and see individual points of light which are stars. that’s a clear image of a star in another galaxy.
That’s an angel
So cool.
that looks beautiful
so Sauron has been watching us the whole time
Who took the picture? Peter Jackson?
One star to rule them all.
Where are the sunglasses? Is that unique to our sun?
# 🎵SPACE IS SO COOOOOL🎵
Nah but fr this shits fascinating.
Oblivion gate
THESUNTHESUNTHESUNTHESUNTHESUNTH-
Why is it egg shaped ? Is that an artifact ?
Don’t stare at it too long
Isn’t this all done through wavelength estimations and what not? It’s not an actual image but an approximation?
Why don’t our sun has a cloudy thing like that? Or is that not visible?
We have a blurry image of a star in another galaxy
Sauron’s A-hole
That’s a clear image…?
🧐
For the first time? How is that possible?
Eye of Soron!!
Don’t look. You will go blind
Alive in the Superunknown!
Oh look, its Sauron!
What’s surrounding it?
