Cat-eyes:Located at 3,000 light years away...

The title sounds like science fiction, but it is as real as you and me.Can you imagine the distance of 3,000 light years away? That means it takes 3000 years for the light from this object(see photo below) to arrive at planet earth.And compare that distance to the distance of the sun which light only takes about 8 minutes to arrive here.Then try to visualise the vastness of space...MasyaAllah.All glories to You,my Lord-Allahu Rabul'alamin.

[50:6] Do they not look at the sky above them? How We have made it and adorned it, and there are no flaws in it?

I just wonder how come we are still arrogant and refuse to obey His commands?

[7:40] To those who reject Our Signs and treat them with arrogance, no opening will there be of the gates of heaven, nor will they enter the Garden, until the camel can pass through the eye of the needle: such is Our reward for those in sin.

[53:61] Sedang kamu adalah orang-orang yang sombong angkuh, lagi yang melalaikan kewajipan?

[53:62] Oleh yang demikian, hendaklah kamu sujud kepada Allah (yang telah menurunkan Al-Quran itu) dan beribadatlah kamu kepadaNya (dengan sepenuh-penuh tauhid).

Below is a news I picked from Telegraph.Enjoy the beauty of Allah's creations:-

The Hubble Space Telescope was launched in April 1990. After the problems with its main mirror were fixed, it started sending beautifully detailed images of space back to earth. Here are some of the best

Staring across interstellar space, the Cat's Eye Nebula lies three thousand light-years from Earth. One of the most famous planetary nebulae, NGC 6543 is over half a light-year across and represents a final, brief yet glorious phase in the life of a sun-like star

Current interpretations of astronomical observations indicate that the age of the Universe is 13.75 billion years, and that the diameter of the observable universe is at least 93 billion light years. According to general relativity, space can expand faster than the speed of light, although we can view only a small portion of the universe due to the limitation imposed by light speed.

I think we human research is still very shallow space, space is full of mysteries, many do not as we humans know. I think after our generation after generation of human exploration of deep space will be more and more in-depth understanding.
