The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has uncovered magnificent sections of the Veil Nebula - the shattered remains of a supernova that exploded some 5-10,000 years ago. The new Hubble images provide beautiful views of the delicate, wispy structure resulting from this cosmic explosion.

I really really wouldn't mind a CAPTCHA test for rating videos. It's quick, simple, and gets rid of bots, and possibly illiterates.. hah.

I love the veil nebula just for its wispyness :)
