By pulling in all the nearby light the image gives a 3-D look, I think it looks like an out-of-focus Krispy Kreme donut.

Might want to check that hemorrhoid… might have flared up a bit there

The image looks kind of fuzzy, was it photographed with the Hubble Space Telescope?

I am just glad that it was a “normal” person making all this happen.

They are going to add even more telescopes to this project, even one or more stationed in space.

Far out!

Many people are telling me this.
