Cool website I found:

Photopic Sky Survey

Photopic Sky Survey Wrote:
Open your eyes to the hidden night
What do you see? This was the anthropic question of a year-long photographic project dubbed the Photopic Sky Survey, meant to reveal the entire night sky as if it rivalled the brightness of day. In it we see tens of millions of stars, the glowing factories of newborn ones, and a rich tapestry of dust all floating on a stage of unimaginable proportions. I hope you enjoy this new view of our place in the universe as much as I have enjoyed making it.

This is great. Especially the interactive image that puts you in the middle, giving depth. You really feel how infinite the universe it.

And how small we are! I love playing in there. If you click the info button it gives more info + constellations, and there's also wiki links when you click on things and go read more about what you're looking at.

That is very nice, Spectrum. Thank you for sharing this. In fact, the belt of Orion is clearly visible in the picture on the opening page. A French scientist called Robert Bauval reckons that the three great pyramids mirror the Orion belt on earth. Interesting thesis, I should say.

What is the significance of this signature, Icaro?

You're welcome, Confused. I wouldn't know about the pyramids lining up with Orion (I remember seeing a documentary on that waaay back though), but I 'do' remember somewhere in the Ra material that their physical location was important in terms of 'energy pockets' on earth and earth's energy grid, or something to that effect.

You are a good student of the LOO, Spectrum Smile

That's a big compliment, Confused. Thank you.

And that's only in one galaxy! It's nuts!

It's from a song about infinity from a great band. Listen to it here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hs4g_jC48Wc
