Wow

I know, another link. But this is just freaking awesome if you ask me. Lunar transit of the sun taken from the STEREO B spacecraft.

Dang, and I'm sitting behind a desk right now. Stupid universe making me feel small and insignificant. It reminds me of the song "Yakko's Universe" from The Animaniacs.

It's a great big universe
And we're all really puny
We're just tiny little specks
About the size of Mickey Rooney
It's big and black and inky
And we are small and dinky
It's a big universe and we're not.

I also now am reminded how much I miss that show. There were many stupid episodes, but there were also many many classics. Rob Paulsen is a genius.
