Starship Asterisk*

It was on another topic the discussion got started on why the sky is dark at night, classic arguments and gut reactions aside; here is some proof of why. This photo is a 100 hour exposure by an xray satellite observatory, and shows very distant galaxies etc, that are xray sources. Even at extreme distance the photo is more empty space than emission source covered.

It is surprising how many sources show, like the Hubble deep field photo, this was taken of visibly empty sky.

Viva la Cosmos !

Thanks , BMAONE23, that's it.

Even tho I checked my typing twice, the XSDS was XDS , thus the fault.

I ended up in the wrong galaxy from a typographical error !

Hello All

In a galaxy far far away.

This image is just a pin point, imagine the full affect (effect if you choose)
of all the pin points.


Now imagine if you had a better telescope and focused for a million hours.
