Astronomy Picture of the Day

It's cool and all, but this is not an astronomy picture. It is a video rendering of what astronomers think it might look like. 5/10

Aw, humbug scrooge! haha. Actually cool that you pointed that out. I really just posted it to maybe
introduce the apod to some. I check it every day. My current icon is a Hubble image of plasma doodle
remnants from an old supernova.
Blessings!

Sometimes I just feel that real things are better and more awe inspiring than what we think real things might look like. I would just personally rather look at actual astronomical images than computer rendered ones. Or at least show us both.

No doubt. The nasa astronomy picture of the day is a wide variety, from amateur photos of the northern lights to deep space galaxies from Hubble. Like you, I really like the distant images, and think about Abraham being challenged to try and count the stars! The terrestrial photos are also very beautiful.
I change my icon regularly to show these photos.

APOD has a lot of actual pictures . I remember when those first pictures from Hubble came out . Wow!!!!!!!

APOD sometimes has illustrations rather than photos - a college pal at Caltech/JPL has had his work featured a few times.
