I downloaded the stunning picture of the Crab Nebula posted on December 2, and discovered that the resolution is only 1280 x 1024. Please forgive me if this is s common question: Is there anywhere I can go to download a higher-resolution image? I would like to print it at 13x19...the largest my printer can handle, so I need something like 2500 x 4000 to get a decent print.

Near the bottom of the page is a .JPG file that is 33.333 x 41.667 inches (per photoshop) it's only 700k so it loads quickly and prints well. the frame could also be cropped making the overall size 31 x 31.
Hope this info helps.
