Hint the picture is from NASA.
The first line of the explanation is---
Do you recognize this intriguing globular cluster of stars?---
But you might be suprised at the answer /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
Check it out here Astronomy Picture of the day
I have the site bookmarked as most of the pics are great and you can get bigger of most for wallpaper. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif

I like platypi, of course I've never seen one /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon3.gif but a mammal that lays eggs, has poison spurs and a bill how can you go wrong.

Only the male Platypus has a poisonous spur. Don't worry there are locals that only get to see them in zoo's.

Wow... I wouldn't even think that it's "from this world"...

Amazing how one look at it, you'd guess it's from another solar system. Boggles the mind sometimes.

Wit's End, I've had APOD bookmarked for a long time, but really haven't gone through the pics since last September.
The pic you posted looked like a dragonfly or other big bug that hit a windshield at 185MPH. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif
I'd never have guessed what it *really* was! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
