Astronomy Picture of the Day, a LORCA (link of required clicking, aha)

Those are truly amazing pictures.

I bought a telescope many moons ago, in my younger days and the first object I saw through it, quite by chance, was Saturn and I can still remember the excitement I felt. But seeing it so close up in those pics was fantastic.

Thanks for posting those links
