          I'm better than dirt. Well, most kinds of dirt, not that fancy store-bought dirt... I can't compete with that stuff.

              Yep. Photoshop.

              I reckon it's a grapefruit turned through 90 degrees to the right.

                Surely that close to the sun, she'd burn up ?

                She cannae take any more cap'n !

                Hmmm....

                If you look 12'o' clock from the shuttle, you will come across what appears to be a small structure on the surface of the sun.

                Aliens ?
                Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

                  That's a nice shot, but take a look at this one: http://www.flickr.com/photos/nasahqphoto/3532145692/

                  See that speck of dust/failed pixel on your screen? That's the ISS and the space shuttle. Click on the "all sizes" link and then look at it in 1800 x 1800 to get a clearer picture.
