Late night open thread

The wonders of space edition.

If you could find a space ship that would take you anywhere in the universe you wanted to go at the speed of light, do you know how long it would take you to get places? If you simply wanted to fly from one end of the Milky Way galaxy to the other, even at the speed of light it would take you 100,000 years. To reach the next closest galaxy to the Milky Way, it would take you at least 6,000,000 years.

You know the routine, click the image of the Milky Way for a cool big old image (NASA image)

Time for Jersey City, After Dark
