Explanation: Is there a spiral galaxy in the center of this spiral galaxy? Sort of. Image data from the Hubble Space Telescope, the European Southern Observatory, and smaller telescopes on planet Earth are combined in this detailed portrait of face-on spiral galaxy Messier 61 (M61) and its bright center. A mere 55 million light-years away in the Virgo Cluster of Galaxies, M61 is also known as NGC 4303. It's considered to be an example of a barred spiral galaxy similar to our own Milky Way. Like other spiral galaxies, M61 also features sweeping spiral arms, cosmic dust lanes, pinkish star forming regions, and young blue star clusters. Its core houses an active supermassive black hole surrounded by a bright nuclear spiral -- infalling star-forming gas that itself looks like a separate spiral galaxy.

Wow.
I hate when you’re in the center of a spiral galaxy and then you accidently astral project 150 kiloparsecs away where you can take a picture of the spiral galaxy you are in.
The real question is what kind of camera can you take with you?
And then you’ve got to remember where you parked the car…
Really nice!
… and thanks for all the fish!
Have you seen the early shots from the Rubin scope?
I don't think so.

Love it! That's some fine master craftsmanship right there.
AI OverviewSublime humor, in an aesthetic sense, refers to humor that evokes a sense of awe, wonder, and sometimes even terror, by engaging with the vastness, power, or incomprehensibility of something, often nature or the human condition. It's a type of humor that goes beyond simple amusement, prompting contemplation and a feeling of being overwhelmed by something greater than oneself.

Look, far be it from me to pester people about this stuff, but it ought to be pretty clear by now that
The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. (Psalm 19:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David)
It's a weird little whirled out there, a veritable candy shop because Who's in total control of the script? He's nowhere mentioned in this scrolling storyline, yet
remember when the President of the United States -- the man from Queens -- was talking to reporters while the flagpole was being installed? (6/18). The topic was Iran (aka Persia)...

And I tried to do it nicely. And then on day 61, I said, let's go,

"March 2 is the 61st day of the year (62nd in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar; 304 days remain until the end of the year." (Wikipedia)
March 2, 1961 -- Purim. 1961 is a strobogrammatic number, 19 is 61 upside-down, so even the upside-down Gregorian year 1961 made obeisance to the "flipped over" concept of the Persian plot on Day 61:

Emet means truth, and the Talmud tells us that Emet -- truth -- is the seal of God. That is why we never separate truth from Hashem.
The gematria of Emet is 441, and 4 + 4 + 1 = 9, indicating that the number nine represents the truth and perfection of Hashem. In mathematics, there is also an amazing fact: every number divisible by nine will have digits that add up to nine or a multiple of nine, further suggesting that nine symbolises overall perfection.
The deeper meaning of numbers in Jewish tradition.

So watch when -- so that's -- that's nine feet deep. And then -- boy, it's a beautiful --
25:52
that's a perfect ball for this. The Press: Oh, so it's going nine feet down. The President: It goes nine feet down. And then, there's nothing in there right now.
26:00
Just a tube grows 9 feet down. And when they fill it, they fill with sand. Pure sand. Absolutely pure sand.
26:07
If they didn't, the chemicals do, you know, they work on it, on the bottom part. Is that interesting to anybody?
It was hot and muggy, with a bit of conversation about the weather. The president wasn't wearing his tie, so there he was with his blue suit and white shirt. Nice touch:
So far away I cannot see it or reach it, but so big I cannot comprehend or ever hope to cross it!
"The real question is what kind of camera can you take with you?"
Well, in your hypothetical, your physical body is stationary, so it could not be a physical camera that takes pictures you could bring back to show us, your FR friends! I do not know we we could see an imaginary or conceptual camera either :)
(They might have a different answer at the University of Metaphysical Sciences and the IMHS Metaphysics Institute or the Institute of Chaos Studies and the Moorish Science Ashram located in Ongs Hat NJ!)
I have managed to avoid Ong's Hat and its Dimensional vortex as Well as the 4th Tower of Inverness in my limited travels!
Ezekiel....I do not even know how to respond! Its a bit like being a pachinko ball bouncing around in a Yeshiva library card catalogue!
I want to look at it and see raspberries in a shake blender swirling around in a base of blueberry Ice Cream with streaks of caramel! Good night!
Imagine being able to see photograph this object that is 55 million light years away yet when I take a photo of anything on earth it comes out blurry...
Understandable, but you really have to laugh. That's the key. Some folks just have no sense of humor that they're aware of. A real dead zone. Too many people are dead. That's a shame. It's senseless.
Everybody looks so grim, when the time is now to live a little.
Besides, it's so hard to keep up with the action and of all the details. While most sources were repeating that the pole height was almost 100 feet, the rounded number is 12 higher. The pair are actually 88 feet high. It's like living in a movie from back in '85, where you can, say, watch the signing of the Declaration of Independence, or witness the birth of Christ. All you have to do is input your destination time on the keypad, kind of like how Bill and Ted were able to work on their history report.
“It’s soaking wet ... and the women with the high heels, it’s just too much.”In the previous post, I missed a key detail. It was even repeated for emphasis on multiple levels. Well it was hot last night, record-breaking in fact.

"the sand, for some reason, chemically, just works. It gives you flexibility. And it doesn't do anything to the cask. It's amazing."
No wonder Shushan the capital/palace was called the Shushan the bira.
Not only does "bira" also mean beer, Shushan means both a lily and a rose, so it was nice that President Trump mentioned why he was adding the patio to the White House Rose Garden. Shoes on the [wet] grass were a causing a big problem, so he's got the plan to fix that.
Not one to skip a detail, he then started talking about the ropes:
It's truly amazing. [checkmate: Classical Persian شاه مات (šāh māt, “the king [is] amazed”)]

The President: You have a good view over there? If you want, you can come over here. Come on over here, come on over here.
21:18
The Press: Mr. President, what do you say to the Supreme Leader of Iran who says yes, he will not surrender?
21:24
The President: I say good luck. The Press: When does your patience run out?
21:30
The President: It's already run out. That's why we're doing what we're doing.
21:35
They had 60 days and a big, you know, 60 days, plenty of time, and they made a mistake.
21:41
Honestly, they made a mistake. Their country's in ruins. (inaudible)

people are dead. They shouldn't be dead.

Come on over here, you don't have to ruin your shoes. That's why we're changing the grass.

22:12
You know, when they're outside, they're very noisy, they snap in the wind. The Press: Mr. President,
22:18
this is a personal project for you, sir? The President: It is, yeah. Well, I'm paying for it.
22:24
The Press: Did you spend your own money on it? The President: Yeah. The Press: Wow. The President: I'd say each pole was like $50,000.
22:29
The Press: Are you going to update the ballroom? The President: Yeah, we start pretty soon. We have a beautiful ballroom. Good question.
personal project...
While it is currently Hebrew year '85,
Go back to the Flag Day of 1946 -- President Trump's birthday on 15 Sivan which he shares with the Patriarch Judah. It was a Friday, so the Torah section opened with the famous verses about the Ark of the Covenant. Famous because these two verses of 85 letters are bookended by reversed letter nuns. The discussion in the Talmud goes on to say that these verses are marked as such because they are not in their proper place in the text, that they actually belong with the flags:
Where is it its appropriate place? Rav Ashi says: "In the section dealing with the disposition of the Israelites according to their banners and their travelling arrangements" (Numbers 1:52-2:34, Shabbath 116a).
The source quote is right 'hear'.
(with the banners: בַּדְּגָלִים , the standard word for flags)
The thing with Hebrew year dates is that the Hebrew letters-as-numerals don't go into the thousands, so the small letters are used in the thousands place.
The letter alef normally = 1, but is enlarged to become 1000, 5 (the letter hei) = 5000, and so on.
By.. extending the concept, it's not any real stretch to see how an "enlarged" letter nun -- normally a 50 -- can become 50,000 just like that, like the cost of each flagpole, waving 50 stars each.
Who Knows 50? -- The distinguished number of transcendence.
It's a miracle.
This year 5785 is flanked by a couple of 5s, and as Numbers Aplenty will tell you:
This PurSion plot sure rates 5 tubs!

In the movie Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure, the quote "The only true wisdom consists in knowing that you know nothing" is attributed to Socrates. When Bill reads this quote from a book, Ted exclaims, "That's us, dude!", highlighting their own lack of conventional knowledge and relating it to the famous philosopher's idea.
