Interesting picture. If it is just floating like that though, it won't remain all that much longer. (To the universe of course...)

Ever since I read "Horton Hears a Who" by Dr. Suess.. I always had this large suspicion that we were really just on a speck of dust.

Those are funny, but I don't think it's true. It's just a cool nebula, that has a pic of it in this cool thread, in the VERY cool (As in Temp.) Universe.

Of course, the whole idea of electrons travelling in fixed orbits around the nucleus is about 70 years out of date. Get with the quantum.

So I really doubt that stars and planets represent nuclei and electrons, or any combination thereof. However, if our entire universe is one subatomic particle in another... maybe. Maybe.

Always been my theory. The planets and stars circling eachother just like electrons and atoms and such do. We're sitting on some tiny part of something huge.

You aren't thinking on an infinite scale. Things are different in the world of infinity. But to be serious, it's really just a coincidence that it is shaped like DNA. It being part of a greater lifeform is just a joke.

Sweet! Almost looks just like DNA! (If it was that'd be scary ) Lets look for more things like that in the Universe. I don't think this means anything important though... Just a cool nebula.

That's awesome. It would be funny if we found life on a planet near there.

well, Double Helix nebula actually...

anyway, http://www.space.com/scienceastronomy/060315_dna_nebula.html

it proves that the galaxy is just one big life form.
