NGC 602 is just too plain a name for this spectacular star formation happening in the Small Magellanic Cloud ~ Notice all the background galaxies hundreds of millions of light years or more beyond NGC 602. Please, guys, don't let Hubble die!

A beautiful sight Joyce! Cool to be able to catch a glimpse of the universe as a star is born!
This is magnificent, Joyce.
OH wow. This is just what I needed: a reminder of how small I am. I (we!) could be in that little galaxy there on the left bottomish of the photo. Heck, what if someone from that galaxy is looking at a picture of our galaxy!?!?!?! My brother's bull-headedness seems so inconsequential now.
