Okay, not to come off sounding like a total retard, but I'm having a hard time reconciling what I'm reading with what I'm seeing. "Picture" isn't photograph taken from a telescope, right?  It's an artist's rendering as informed by a radio telescope, correct?

Also, that's one fine looking daughter.  You, sir, will be in my prayers.

No, that is an actual picture taken from a telescope. A 3.6meter telescope, timelapsed for maybe three or four hours for svereal consecutive days. Computer software then enhances the image.
