Paint.NET

I have been using GiMP for Windows but I might have to try this instead. The window layout looks a lot better to me.

APOD: 2004 December 19 - Molecular Cloud Barnard 68:
The Astronomy Picture of the day is pretty cool for today. Or well whatever date this one was posted :) I'm a little behind on my Internet surfing what with the holiday's and all (in other words I havn't been at work ooops)


"Explanation: Where did all the stars go? What used to be considered a hole in the sky is now known to astronomers as a dark molecular cloud. Here, a high concentration of dust and molecular gas absorb practically all the visible light emitted from background stars. The eerily dark surroundings help make the interiors of molecular clouds some of the coldest and most isolated places in the universe. One of the most notable of these dark absorption nebulae is a cloud toward the constellation Ophiuchus known as Barnard 68, pictured above. That no stars are visible in the center indicates that Barnard 68 is relatively nearby, with measurements placing it about 500 light-years away and half a light-year across. It is not known exactly how molecular clouds like Barnard 68 form, but it is known that these clouds are themselves likely places for new stars to form. It is possible to look right through the cloud in infrared light."
