This “Firefox logo” image was captured by the Hubble Space Telescope in March 2004. It’s actually the variable star V838 Monocerotis near our Milky Way Galaxy. We personally think it’s actually a sign from Heaven for everyone to stop using Internet Explorer. [NewLaunches]

The Lord works in interesting ways.
Wow. That’s a crazy resemblance!
Shooped!
Firefox logo is simple and there could be a galaxy looking similar, however that very very low resolution photo really looks photoshoped.
A new project is born, the “find the firefox galaxy”….
I use firefox, even the newest betas in some workstations.
its been photoshoped http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.spacetelescope.org/images/screen/heic0503a.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.spacetelescope.org/images/html/heic0503a.html&h=1273&w=1280&sz=494&hl=en&start=10&um=1&tbnid=7mPGDKrgZGbn6M:&tbnh=149&tbnw=150&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dv838%2Bmonocerotis%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla:en-US:official%26sa%3DN
I do not have the latest PC and explorer keeps crashing my machine so I have switched to Firefox which has been great. I will be looking at the sky in a whole new way from now on.
It’s been rotated morons, not shopped. God, everyone loves pretending to be the Colombo of image manipulation.
LOL. Yeah, it’s not shopped, just flipped upside down then mirrored.
Ха ха:)
Great:)
Actually it is not photoshoped, it went through many phases and one of the phases looked like the Firefox logo

the picture below is one of the phases that does not look like the logo

frankly, I find that all the pictures you guys are showig look the same, so either they are all FAKE or all REAL. Get with the program here!
either way, I like it!
I personally use both Firefox and IE and I do like them both. Wouldn’t mind using other browsers (Whatever expands my surfing experience).
I wonder though, why do we have to take sides?
And I find it quite odd how some people interpret this beautiful phenomena. I rather watch and praise God for being born with eyes to see it.
Yeah, I’m sure the lord is a big fan of fire fox! Seriously?
I’m sure that has nothing to do with it. It’s a nebula that changes phases pure and simple. So what if the photo’s been rotated, you can do the same with the telescope itself, I cant wait to see people say it’s been photoshoped because its not at the exact angle as the last one, or that “ooo, look, one pixle is out of place”. just give up and admit that firefox is better… unfortunantly this place that im writing this from uses Internet Explorer, and an old version at that
God prefers open standards!!!!!!
really now?
did god tell you tht himself?
it’s a picture people,
a cool one
not everything has to be analyzed
that is awesome, i just didn’t want to say it myself as i’m usually kicked when i say someones delusional
It is not photo shopped just rotated
when I said to the peeps in the church that this is the sing of our Lord they said that they believe me

It does look kinda fake in some ways but I’m in no doubt that it’s a real photo of a deep space event, one that would probably consume our tiny planet a trillion times over.
Go FireFox! I agree that it’s a sign for everyone to stop using IE.. yikes.
