    THE LEGACY OF HUBBLE: ONE IMAGE, A QUARTER MILLION GALAXIES

    Astronomers on Thursday published a remarkable new picture of the deep universe. The image, shown in full at the end of this post, contains perhaps 265,000 visible galaxies crammed into a region smaller than the moon's apparent size in the sky.

    So, the Rockets should look at the big picture even though they’re down 0-2?

    To think, somewhere in that picture Draymond is probably setting an illegal screen, kicking someone in the nuts or poking their eye.

    Good thread for the GARM. It really hammers home how insignificant a basketball game is in comparison to the entirety of the universe. :D

    Anyone else think the GARM threads are a little unsorted today?

    You knew exactly what you were doing...

    You trying to say someone on the rockets is a black hole?
