Published images and APOD's by the UMSF family, - UMSF members make a difference in bringing Space to the public! Options

[Guest_Oersted_*]

Hi all,

I thought we should have a thread with all the major-publication publicized images and APOD's made by UMSF members. We really bring Space to the public and we should be proud of it!

I would like for each entry to contain:

1) a <100kb photo of the image itself + its name.
2) a link to the real-size image.
3) the UMSF user name(s) of the creators.
4) a link to the UMSF thread(s) where the image is presented/discussed.

I want to list the images chronologically, so if you can help me out with thread contributions in the above-described format, I'll insert those contributions to this first posting.

Thanks a lot, and here goes:

Remember, this thread is a work in progress, help me out here!

There must also be Cassini images I don't know about... So, add your info to this thread!

Very well deserved. Every time you post I'm newly thrilled by that image, made possible by an almost impossible building which in itself embodies an astronomical theme given a new astronomical twist by clever photography. I hope the musician understands all the layers. Is the music any good? Heck, I may buy it for the cover anyhow.

Thanks for all your comments guys, warms the heart!

You can actually listen to snippets of the music here on the record label page of the CD:

As to whether Mr. Minasi understands all the layers of the image. Well, he is from Rome, I believe, and would then know the Pantheon very well.

Wether you fancy Carl Sagan or not here's something where several UMSFers are involved:

Being behind the curtains on this I am really proud to see how people put their hearts into it...
Stu, Nick, Lyford...thank you for everything!
