Like, man:

BAUT Forum screenshot:
peacenebulashot.png

(Reduced) image obtained via pasting URL of unavailable image:
peace-nebulareduced.jpg

Edit: now, the image has become available. The original article looks somewhat better (except the image tags sill bracket the smilies).

Sorry, but for me the original post has no link. I thought it was a poorly executed joke...

Actually, the original Hubble photo looks like the nebula was flipping a bird.
