FEBRUARY 17, 2011: NASA's Hubble Space Telescope reveals a majestic disk of stars and dust lanes in this view of the spiral galaxy NGC 2841, which lies 46 million light-years away in the constellation of Ursa Major (The Great Bear). This image was taken in 2010 through four different filters on Hubble's Wide Field Camera 3. Wavelengths range from ultraviolet light through visible light to near-infrared light.

3. I think the whole thing is alive, as is our galaxy.

We're just too limited in perception to grasp how. Maybe, some day.
