Thank you for this story, I would love to see the image, unfortunately the direct link that has been posted to the special tool does not work, is that browser specific?

It might take awhile for the tool to load. The image is around 190 GB in size. I'm at work and I've let it sit for twenty minutes now. My work doesn't have the best internet though. I might have to wait until I get home.
What I have loaded is absolutely stunning.

Nice! I was looking for one of these. Is the picture aligned with galactic coordinates?
