Poster s002 from the Sexy Astronomer.

Decorate your space with cosmic beauty. This image is from the Hubble Heritage collection.

(1) Rez the object to your sandbox, house, business, or sim. (2) Right-click and "edit" to adjust the position, size, and rotation for the perfect fit. Note that the object is a squashed cube, so if you flip the Y and Z dimensions under the "object" tab of the edit menu you will get a rug! Keep the aspect ratio approximately "square" to avoid image distortion.

CAPTION: To celebrate the 21st anniversary of the Hubble Space Telescope's deployment into space, astronomers at the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore, Md., pointed Hubble's eye at an especially photogenic pair of interacting galaxies called Arp 273. The larger of the spiral galaxies, known as UGC 1810, has a disk that is distorted into a rose-like shape by the gravitational tidal pull of the companion galaxy below it, known as UGC 1813. This image is a composite of Hubble Wide Field Camera 3 data taken on December 17, 2010, with three separate filters that allow a broad range of wavelengths covering the ultraviolet, blue, and red portions of the spectrum.

This image is also available in the ss001 slide show.
