Thanks Mike
Actually, I usually refrain from saying any of those things because they don't sound very 'authentic' with my Danish accent

This is getting ridiculous, awesome work Rolf, just awesome.

I just got me a new background image for the PC ... stunner... thanks
Thank you Brent. I thought it would be worth having a look at the old Voyager data given it's our only source of hi-res images from these distant worlds.

Thanks for a magnificent view.

Thank you Alex, it's such a spectacular planet isn't it. I hope we'll see a Cassini-like orbiter sent to one of the outer gas giants. I believe NASA had plans for a Uranus orbiter very high on their list, but it was put on hold due to budget constraints.

Thanks Rod, I'm fascinated with these outer worlds as well. They don't get enough attention!

Thanks very much John, yes wonderfully eerie probably describes these planets well. They are awesome
