'A spectacular new image of an unusual spiral galaxy in the Coma Galaxy Cluster has been created from data taken by the Advanced Camera for Surveys on the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. It reveals lots of new details of the galaxy, NGC 4921, as well as an extraordinary rich background of more remote galaxies stretching back to the early Universe.'

  • wonderful video

  • The final frontier...

  • rochet75 answer is flawed. Putting into consideration that there around 10 thousand billion billion stars in the known universe. That may sound outrageous, but this is the current scientific answer at the moment. If anyone would like any information on CERN or scientific research please feel free to ask me. two more years and i will finnaly have my degree in reletive mass physics.

  • cool beans hot shot

  • HD rocks,

  • An amount so small it will most certainly depress you. There are about 200 BILLION stars in an average galaxy, and there are about 100 BILLION galaxies in the universe! So we have observed about .0000001%(probably a lot less than that). These HUGE numbers are what make me laugh when people say that Earth is the only place that has life. Given those numbers, it seems statistically impossible for that to be true!

  • how much percentage of the universe do you think is discovered now?

  • Nice images. I wonder if I should chuck my telescope wth the 13" diameter mirror.

  • Gr8 vid, I am wondering if there will or even if there is a satellite out there that will be able to send video back of whats out there and if there isn't it sure would be nice to see something like that if it can be made to do that... I sure do love watch vids like this, thx for sharing
