Never ceases to amaze. Open the big one and zoom in as far as your browser will go. If your contrast is high enough - it’s hard to find more than a couple pixels in a row that doesn’t contain a star, which tells me it’s just not a high enough resolution image, because there’s probably a star behind every pixel in the image.

Upon viewing panoramas such as this I am struck again with the notion that sentient beings at the core of our galaxy must certainly be in communication with each other star to star. Also it is equally true that the density of light prevents them from the grander vista of an infinitude of galaxies visible to us on the outer rim.
Only the speed of thought can bridge these gaps.
