But it&#8217;s true; there&#8217;s something so awesome about the HST images that ooze detail in a way that captures the vast and magnificent nature of these &#8216;stellar cities&#8217;. But it&#8217;s not all about the pictures. Hubble has allowed [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=willgater.com&amp;blog=2757830&amp;post=125&amp;subd=willgater&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
