The pink part of the nebula reminds me of a flower; like the viola plant!

I wouldn't take that, Orin. I think he's calling you a pansy.

I've been called worse! Who knows; maybe some day they'll name one the pansy nebula! 8) After all there's one called the Rosette. http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap060324.html Anyway I do have a vivid imagine at times!

The colours are certainly nice in the photograph. Being called a pansy is actually a compliment, as Pansies are nice flowers.
If someone is calling someone a Pansy as an insult, the insulter is not a nice person. Niceness is nice.

Looks like a boxing glove to me... bam bop bam bam

Orin,

I think Art is clever and sneaky from watching his posts. I am sure he was kidding too. Art also seems quite smart to me. Smart people don’t start fights unless they know they will win. Correct me if I am wrong, but none of us know that much about the other… heck you could be a super combat proven “don’t nobody want to mess with” gracious mighty dude for all anyone here knows… able to kick any of our posteriors. Art would be well aware of this… but then again… we don’t know his physical prowess either…. Well, I haven’t resolved anything have I? Except I still think the nebula looks a lot like a boxing glove.



Say, maybe it's an alien message to us meager earthlings… I expect Aliens like to show off their superior cosmic industrial capability by blowing up stars just to give us pitiful earth bound weaklings subliminal cosmic messages… They’re always up to something… Say!... You think Art is one of THEM?

My posts are just limenade.

  Liminal, as an adjective, means situated at a sensory threshold, hence barely perceptible.>>

Have it with lintel soup and a sub, or maybe even a jamb sandwich.

Here's what I had in mind! here's url; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Viola ... 7.jpg#file

What a marvellous image. The Trifid Nebula is so photogenic.

The investigation of the Trifid Nebula is clearly giving long employment! The "Which bright young stars light up the blue reflection nebula is still being investigated" in the explanation has a link to a paper 'The Trifid reflection nebulae' that was in the Astronomical Journal of November 1986!
