Orion

Close on the heels of the Spitzer shot of the Milky Way we have an amazing Hubble shot of Orion. (Nothin' like a little healthy, nerdy, competion.) And not just any Hubble shot - one of the most detailed deep space images ever taken. This huge 18,000 x 18,000 pixel (that's a third of a billion pixels) image was released today by NASA and shows thousands of stars never before seen in visible light.
