Psalm 8:3 -“When I consider Your heavens “–
The following images are from the Hubble
space Telescope.
Have you ever wondered what you are
really seeing when you consider the
heavens?
What value do you have to God?
Let’s take a quick tour of our amazing
universe---
MORE THAN 80% OF THE OBJECTS IN THIS PHOTO ARE GALAXIES
HERE ARE MORE THAN 100,000 STARS
Spiral galaxy NGC 2841, which lies 46 million light-years away in the
constellation of Ursa Major ( The Big Dipper), reveals a majestic disk of
stars and dust lanes.
Dense knots of dust and gas, called "Bok globules," hold
the elements responsible for the formation of stars. These
knots, located in the Milky Way, are about 9,500 light-years
from Earth. ----This knot is over 18 Trillion miles across
Gas released by a dying star races across space at more
than 600,000 miles an hour, forming the delicate shape of a
celestial butterfly. This nebula is also known the Bug
Nebula.—A big Bug more than 26 Trillion miles wide
A pillar of gas in the Carina Nebula is bathed in the light
of hot, massive stars. –How Massive? larger than our entire
solar system
This sequence of
images captures a
parade of four of
Saturn's moons –the
largest of these
moons Titan is 80%
more massive than
our own moon and by
volume is larger than
the planet Mercury
Saturn takes a 29-year
journey around the Sun
A billowing tower of gas and dust forms the Eagle Nebula.
This small piece of the Eagle Nebula is 57 trillion miles Long
–Almost Ten Light years
Three of the galaxies here in Stephan's Quintet (5
Galaxies), are distorted from their gravitational interactions with one
another even though they are hundreds of thousands of trillions of miles
apart.
These photos show both sides of Mars The right image
shows the giant volcano Olympus Mons, an oval-shaped
feature just above the center. Is 342 Miles across and 14
miles High or more than twice the height of Mt. Everest!
A pillar of Hydrogen gas rising in the Carina Nebula
that is 18 Trillion miles high. Our whole solar system would
fit along it’s length more than 20 times
The Sombrero Galaxy with its brilliant white core is
encircled by thick dust lanes.--This galaxy is 50,000 light-years
across, --350,000 Trillion Miles-- and 28 million light years from Earth-Is
home to 360 Billion Stars most of which are larger than our sun
The large Whirlpool Galaxy (left) is known for its sharply
defined spiral arms. which could be the result of the Whirlpool's
gravitational tug-of-war with its smaller companion galaxy (right).
Psalm 8:4-- What is man that you are mindful of Him?--EVERYTHING—more than all the Stars—enough to sacrifice His son—
enough that in the whole universe there is only one of you!
