Happy Birthday Star



NASA has just released this image taken from the Hubble Space Telescope of a star being born. (Click on it to zoom in, it's a fairly gigantic image.) And in related news, today is my friend Stephen's birthday.

My God, creation is one big brown ugly mess. It actually looks like Jeyes fluid being dissolved into a bucket of water. I'm suddenly reminded of having a dog at home years ago. We used to have to wash down the yard with it (Jeyes fluid, not the dog.) Could the Big Bang just be the Creator doing a bit of housekeeping? Is the Milky Way merely a giant yard that just needed to be disinfected? Are planets just celestial dog poo?
