Tadpole Galaxy
Speaking of Hubble captures...I was very drawn to this galaxy image a few days ago from Picture of the Day and I thought, That looks like a fish!  Then I noted it had been dubbed the Tadpole Galaxy. Yeah, it also resembles a tadpole.  And I realized that so often scientifically inclined people see "images" (spirit) in things, too, though they view it as a clever coincidence that makes for a great nickname. Fair enough. This is also a sync to the joke I just posted.

I agree. It's a peach of a galaxy. I like it too.  I also agree with you about: scientifically inclined people see "images" (spirit) in things, too, though they view it as a clever coincidence that makes for a great nickname. Fair enough. It's interesting, isn't it?
