The Night Sky

John Dempsey writes:

See the largest true-color photograph of the night sky ever created, shot by 28-year-old amateur astrophotographer Nick Risinger using six astronomical cameras. It’s a 360-panoramic view of the sky taken by trekking 60,000 miles across the western United States and South Africa starting in March 2010. The final image is composed of 37,000 separate photographs. It’s interactive, and quite impressive.

LA to John Dempsey:

John, I’ve just posted this.

Do you think there are any other planets with intelligent life, and if so, do you think they are as screwed up as this planet is?

John Dempsey replies:

If there are others, I think that they could only be as screwed up as we are if they too have rejected their Creator to which they are beholden. I sometimes wonder if this planet has much of anything for intelligent life remaining on it, present company excepted, of course. And I’m dead serious.
