THE SUNFLOWER GALAXY


IN ONE OF THE STARS
I SHALL BE LIVING
IN ONE OF THEM
I SHALL BE LAUGHING
AND SO IT WILL BE
AS IF ALL THE STARS WERE LAUGHING
WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE SKY AT NIGHT
And the boy/man loved sunflowers so these
are the stars where he's living and laughing.
The Astronomy Picture of the Day for his birthday.

Lovely picture Jahteh. I get my desktops from you.

Looks better than our galaxy. There isn't a big pall of polution hanging over it for one thing.

Laura, I can't resist images from the internet and APOD has brilliant photos. I change my desktop according to mood and the screen saver is my pictures.

We'd have clean skies if certain antiquarians would give up smoking.

That is just so beautiful... and he is... I will have to find a spot in the sky also

Therese, just google Astronomy Picture of the Day and you can go back through all the images from the Hubble telescope until the right one hits you.

Happy Birthday to the boy in the stars. What a great place to go.

I haven't heard what the creationists say about the Universe, probably the creator upchucking his lunch.

The boy's head was always in the stars and his feet in concrete, a real contradiction.
