What would you do if you saw this image on your computer screen??
http://www.spacetelescope.org/images/html/opo9630a.html

I think i would have to sit dowm and take a few deep breaths. Search the horizon for clouds and starting imaging as many images as i could.

I would then delete all directories apart from /winnt and / toucamstuff and /jupiter avis once the hard disk filled up!

Man that is stunning. Beautiful shot. The greyscale just seems to add so much to it.

The first thing I'd do is drag the desktop computer out to the scope & delete everything that wasn't important....fill 'er up!
