Document Summary
This is a very interesting image that at first made me think of ice cream. It looks like vanilla ice cream with (cid:272)ara(cid:373)el swirled i(cid:374)to it, with the (cid:271)la(cid:272)k dots (cid:271)ei(cid:374)g (cid:272)ho(cid:272)olate (cid:272)hips. But that"s what it looks like to me, i really like the different shades of brown and the different patterns of color. I know that jupiter is a very large planet but this picture further captures the size of it by not including the whole planet. The image itself perfectly captures all of the colors and highs and lows of the picture. I think the picture makes me think that it is close because we were able to get a picture of a section of the object and not the whole thing which would mean that its close. The whirlpool galaxy has a very bright bulge in the middle. The spiral ring of the galaxy looks like hot lava bring swirled around a hot star.
