Have you ever looked up into the night sky and wondered "What is out there?" I found photos of nebulas and other galaxies. Then I found my self wondering that exact same question. This nebula for some reason wasn't given a "name". It is just referred to as "IC1396" What would you have named it?

"The Geyser Nebula." Looks like a spewing geyser to me. I also love astronomy and astrology. Space is a great place to let your imagination roam free.

Oh when it comes to something as infinate as Space there is no limitation to one's imagination. I don't know who said it but I have heard it said that "In an infinate universe there are infinate possibilities" Do you believe this?

Even if it was a finite universe, I still think there are infinite possibilities. I believe that for everything actually. Anything is possible in my mind.

I can't say that I have named it. But I just see it as something that is mysterious and magickal. I love to look at the stars and wonder about the possibilities. It is so large and we are so small, I know there are probably unlimited about of lie out there. But many people refuse to believe that because they have to see it to believe it. To me, seeing the stars and knowing that we have not reached the end is enough for me to know that there are many things outside of this world that would make one think of the endless possibilities.
