Thanks, I love this kind of stuff. NASA Goddard Photo and Video is my favorite stream on flickr too.

I wonder what stitching software they used? Are overlapping areas ok? Cheesy

Dang, that was my idea and I've been working on it for five years... now someone else did it. I'll have to start over with something new. Cheesy

125 million pixel images are about 11200 x 11200 each. Can I have a WOW just for that? Did I read that right?

Uh yes, I did: The workhorse behind the data set, a camera comprising 125 million pixels that long held the record for highest-resolution camera in the world, has been retired. Another Wow...

I wonder what they will do next?
