Ah, Spitzer, how I love you.
NASA's Image of the Day has released a new image from the Spitzer Space Telescope, this time with a view of the Orion Nebula. This area of the nebula is filled with budding stars and what we can interpret as growing solar systems. Perhaps one of those stars will allow of the creation of a planet similar to ours and a millenia from now they will be looking up into the heavens with their own Spitzer, trying to unravel the mysteries of space.
Isn't it just amazing?
For a hilarious, yet informative, look at the Spitzer Space Telescope check this video starring Felicia Day.
