Image loading one line at a time. That takes me back

The pic is amazing. Shows the true majesty of our solar system. The universe seems so peaceful and awe-inspiring as opposed to current events taking place on our earth.

It stops loading just after Oberon for me. Tried it a couple of times, no luck.

edit- expected it to be taller

Awesome picture.

I like how it misleads you into thinking pluto isn't a dwarf planet.

That moon called Lepetus is interesting, loads of nutters on the internet reckon it's an artificial moon with a weld mark through the centre lol.

Sweet!

Had to do a bit of editing in Photoshop, to get it to fit as a wallpaper.

Pinter75 - what's that cool blue glow? Do you live on the USS Enterprise? :cool:

Thread delivers. This gets me excited about space travel.

And if you like space stuff, and lego.

Get one of these bad boys - in the lego shop now and awesome.

And if you can find one, a limited edition Discovery channel shuttle.

Also I really should go and get this out of the shed. Cost me apretty penny and it has not been touched in nearly 2 years!

Shame it can do this
