Scientists reveal amazing X-ray image of a supernova in deep space

we have the first image of the hand of God.
The ghostly blue cloud seems to form an outstretched thumb and fingers grasping a burning lump of coal.
This astonishing image was taken by Nasa's Chandra X-ray observatory, which is orbiting 360 miles above the Earth's surface.

Very cool. The funny thing is that there will be people who count this as irrefutable evidence of God's existence.

If it were yellow it would look like a Simpson's hand (you know, because they only have 3 fingers and a thumb). Pretty cool pic.

You can also watch Venus disappear Wednesday morning.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/space/20090421/ … daymorning

At locations where it occurs in a relatively dark sky, you may be able to watch Venus disappear using no optical aid at all. Binoculars will better the view, however. They are especially recommended for Venus' disappearance on the moon's bright limb, and at locations where the sky is bright. For those watching in deep twilight, earthshine on the moon's unlit portion will add to the beauty of the event.

Occultations of Venus in a dark or twilit sky do not happen very often for any specific spot on Earth. From Los Angeles, it happened only once in the 20th century (Jan. 13, 1923) and after this year, the next opportunity will not come again until Oct. 11, 2029.

In and out
Unlike the pinpoint image of a star, which would appear to click off almost instantaneously if occulted, Venus will not disappear suddenly but will take nearly a minute to completely fade out, since it has an appreciable angular size roughly 1/40 that of the moon.
