We travel not for trafficking alone:
By hotter winds our fiery hearts are fanned:
For lust of knowing what should not be known
We make the Golden Journey to Samarkand

Space photos

I've not put on many images for a while, so here's me making up for it. The Hubble Space Telescope took these photos. Yes, they are photos. Yes, they're real. If you’re insistent on finding out the secrets to magic tricks, rest assured that the first image merely depicts a gaseous column of hydrogen, carbon monoxide and ammonia; the second is the Orion nebula. Science can dullify anything. Click on them and marvel.
