Yikes!  This may the first "amateur" image I have seen that shows
protoplanetary disks (Or at least what I think are protoplanetary disks.  I
haven't matched positions with a Hubble image).  Simply amazing!

If amateur space flight were advancing as fast as amateur vrs. pro
astrophotography, a number of you APML folks would be marching on the Moon
tonight!
