Hubble Eyes Geeks
A few months ago I came across a posting called '56 Geeks' by Scott Johnson.
Although this image is huge I thought is would be cool it I lead off each of my blogs or sections with one of these guys, then you would know what way coming. [Yes, I actually thought about this while I was not blogging. It's not that I didn't want to blog but between the crazy things happening at work and the drama of family I lost the love of blogging, but I have the itch again. I'm not sure how long I can scratch it. Oh well, it doesn't matter my readers have all left me. Maybe not having the pressure of putting out a blog is why I want to put one out? Go figure.]
Anyway. I think I might plug in a couple of these guys every once and a while, we'll see. I wish there was an astronaught on the moon geek or a Scouter Geekn to complete my collection.
-------------------
I'm not sure which guy to use here becaue there is not a "Space Geek" but I could choose between.

Hubble peers into the Great Eye of Sauron
Astronomers at the University of California, Berkeley, and NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center have released a rather remarkable Hubble image of a ring of dust around star Fomalhaut, described by New Scientist as resembling "the Great Eye of Sauron".
Fomalhaut, aka Alpha Piscis Austrini, is one of the brightest stars in the night sky, lying around 25 light years from Earth. a
A recent image captured with the Hubble Space Telescope makes the system look like the Great Eye of Sauron from the Lord of the Rings.
This is a great photo and goes well with the 'Eye of God' photo I posted in one of my earliest blogs.

That's all for now
