What is it? Space mystery object?

[wonderboy]

Any of you guys remember this post?

it was awesome! I didnt realise the furore that my attempt caused in What is it? Space mystery object #39. haha. I posted a small version of the APOD from the 22/11/2008 (or 11/22/2008 if your American) the picture in question is a panorama found here:

http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap081122.html


It sure was a toughie because I had to solve the mystery from my own clue haha, because i last posted it from a different computer from a different job. Anyways I found it, and contrary to some peoples postings, it wasnt a click through and was most definately an APOD from the archive.

I would very much like this post to come back and I am going to make one in the educational forum with the first clue. Good luck and enjoy because it was my favourite game on here to date.

Welcome to "What is it? Space mystery object? Version 2.0"

For those long enough in the tooth another version of this game can be found in this same part of the forum. it is now locked.

However, it was a fun game and I am bringing it back, or at least attempting to.

Rules:

1) All posts need to be from the APOD Arcive, no click throughs or any other kinds of images.
2) The images can be edited such as zooming in but no flipping or changing colours.
3) if you find it out, post your answer with a spoiler so that if others play in the future the games not ruined
4) ALL replies to this post have to include the forum title and be numeric such as What is it? Space mystery object? #1
5) have fun.
6) if you think of other rules that could help let me know.


The first post is coming soon.

[Nitpicker]

I have no idea whether this one will prove difficult or not:

[wonderboy]

this ones really hard!!!

[Nitpicker]

Especially while the NASA site is down.

Hint: it's looking down on the former CCCP.

[owlice]

Yes, please use the spoiler tag so people can still work it out even if others already have. Thanks!

again its a recent one!!! was racking my brains to get this. well done bystander.

[Beyond]

Ah, that's what that little white thing just off the center is (via bystanders second link. The APOD link won't display).

[Nitpicker]

Well done bystander ... tag you're it. I really didn't think it would be that hard, but wasn't sure. I grew up with a mother who liked doing 1000-piece jigsaw puzzles of things like a clear blue sky, and perhaps this rubbed off on me.

Owlice, re the spoiler, fairy nuff, I concede.

[wonderboy]

c'mon bystander! Holding us up here haha.

[bystander]

Some one else can post

Huh. To me, it looks like the Triffid nebula overlaid with the Pleiades. So i have no idea what it is.

let me know if im right!

[geckzilla]

Why would you reference the apod.nasa.gov site at this point in time? Find a site that works.

[wonderboy]

can I just say, whilst on this point, I can log on and see ALL APODS on the apod.nasa.gov site. if you cannot; then why can I?
