A friend sent this to me.......

Can you imagine looking through a telescope into space and God is looking back in the other end of the telescope?

This is a picture NASA took with the Hubble telescope


NASA CALLS IT THE EYE OF GOD

Actually, NASA never did call it that.

It is a real photograph of the Helix Nebula, although it's technically not a single photograph but rather a composite image formed from several photographs taken by NASA's orbiting Hubble Space Telescope and a land-based telescope at the Kitt Peak National Observatory near Tucson, Arizona.

This image was NASA's "Astronomy Picture of the Day" for 10 May 2003. The picture's "Eye of God" appellation appears to have been a title coined by an admirer of the photo due to the nebula's resemblance to a human eye, not something designated by NASA.


None the less, still pretty amazing.....
