Now that's incredible. I hate thinking about the vastness of space, make my friggin head spin.
The picture reminds me of The Moody Blues 'Question of Balance' cover art.

^ 'Knights in White Satin' by The Moody Blues, was the song my wife and I danced to, at our wedding.

Wow! Now that there is an amazing picture. It's so great and perfect it's almost looks just like a painting.
Thanks for sharing.

It's not actually a "Pic of Space from NASA."
From NASA:
"Above, an
artist's impression
shows a primordial quasar as it might have been, surrounded by sheets of gas, dust, stars and early star clusters."

Still beautiful though. (Title changed for accuracy.)

Doh! That's what I get for not reading through the whole article on Digg.
