 It seems that the Creator is hidden by shrouds of "smoke". Could it be that He is hiding much as the Wizard of Oz hid behind that curtain? 
And I'm sure that AZPaul3 is making worship hymnals for the "heavenly choir" to gush praise at the creation itself...Creator Schmeator! Invisible as usual.

Either that or it must be a REALLY BIG PIN! Absolutely huuuge.

If you don't have anything to contribute to this thread you could consider the alternative. Death?  Or silence. I feel that it is an honor to contribute my opinion on topics that I myself don't originate and apologize if I am cluttering it up. I think that the images garnered from these telescopes are nothing short of amazing and wonderful. Unlike people who once thought that the moon landings were faked, I have little doubt that these images are anything other than real and special to humanity. They reassure us in that we can see the past. They help provide useful data to further science. And if nothing else, they essentially prove that 5 or 6000 years is far too short of a probable timeframefor human development. That being said, I tried to interject some humor from the Holy Trollers. (A better term than Holy Rollers!  )"A lie can travel half way around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes." ~Mark Twain " *** “…far from science having buried God, not only do the results of science point towards his existence, but the scientific enterprise itself is validated by his existence.”- Dr.John Lennox “A God without wrath brought men without sin into a Kingdom without judgment through the ministrations of a Christ without a Cross.” “The most difficult subjects can be explained to the most slow-witted man if he has not formed any idea of them already; but the simplest thing cannot be made clear to the most intelligent man if he is firmly persuaded that he knows already, without a shadow of a doubt, what is laid before him.” — Leo Tolstoy, The Kingdom of God is Within You

I think I would pick a better word than "luck"
Just sayin. The most difficult subjects can be explained to the most slow-witted man if he has not formed any idea of them already; but the simplest thing cannot be made clear to the most intelligent man if he is firmly persuaded that he knows already, without a shadow of a doubt, what is laid before him.” - Leo Tolstoy, The Kingdom of God is Within You (1894). When both religious and non-religious people reach the same conclusions then you know religion isn't the reason.--Percy Democrats should not be the only party. Respect the two-party system. -Phat, in December 2022 We see Monsters where Science shows us Windmills.~Phat, remixed

Right after I saw your post, I added the Orion Nebula as my official computer screen background. It makes me think. A pause for reflection, as it were.

I had to look up something to talk about, since I angered ringo (which I didnt mean to do) and saw you cussing up a storm here too...though I realize that you express yourself more readily with profanity. When ringo does it, I get worried.
Anyway, does anyone remember when I stated that 80% of the population of the US is East of Kansas, 20% West of Kansas, and of that, 12% California? This image from NASA proves it. I got it from this page: NASA Mission,Goals,and Objectives
My point in posting this was to comment on a topic that pertains to NASA.The most difficult subjects can be explained to the most slow-witted man if he has not formed any idea of them already; but the simplest thing cannot be made clear to the most intelligent man if he is firmly persuaded that he knows already, without a shadow of a doubt, what is laid before him.” - Leo Tolstoy, The Kingdom of God is Within You (1894).

Science Alert writes: Its ironic how the "dark side" holds everything together! It is possible we're simply unable to detect some kinds of dwarf galaxy, such as those with very few stars, consisting primarily of gas and dark matter. Finding enough of them would help resolve the whole shortfall in dwarf galaxies.The most difficult subjects can be explained to the most slow-witted man if he has not formed any idea of them already; but the simplest thing cannot be made clear to the most intelligent man if he is firmly persuaded that he knows already, without a shadow of a doubt, what is laid before him.” - Leo Tolstoy, The Kingdom of God is Within You (1894).
