Great detail. Glad WFC3 is doing some good. It would suck if it ended up sucking.

Yep - yours is but a cropped portion of the 'original', LOL. And the other thread's source-of-image is from the 'Hubble site' rather than the usual Nasa.gov typically referred to I prefer more robust images myself, and looking to see if it has already been mentioned in the Forum.
