Colliding Galaxies

The New York Times, among other papers, recently published a new Hubble photograph of distant galaxies colliding.

Of course, astronomers have had pictures of colliding galaxies for quite some time now, but with the vastly improved resolution provided by the Hubble Space Telescope, you can actually see lawyers rushing to the scene.

I remember an old Sierra Online game: Space Quest II (or was it III), where the cover of the game showed a picture of Earth getting 'attacked' with lawyers from space :D

that was Space Quest 2 ;)

Those were door-to-door salesmen. Not even Vohaul was going to send *lawyers* down. And it was Xenon, not earth. DO I play old games to much?

Salesmen, lawyers, Jehova's! Heck they're all annoying if you ask me!

I just remember the picture [img]smile.gif[/img] And YES you sure do play old games too much.

What adverts are you talking about now? :confused:

Colliding Galaxies ehh? I wonder how much money I can make from that. :D

Now I have seen the picture (see link below), I am convinced. The 'tail' in the right side of the picture looks indeed million of lawyers rushing to the scene :D .
