I've seen them before, never actually thought I'd have a use for them until now.

Anyone know where you can get those super high resolution space pictures, that are gigantic and taken from hubble? I need a skybox for my Beryl :)

    NASA picture of the day: http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/astropix.html . They have a gigantic archive you can search through.

    There is a better site, give me a bit.. it has the complete NASA archive and other space agencies.

    It's definitive high resolution stuff, just need to remember the url.

    EDIT: It's out there somewhere, they've made it harder to find though.

    EDIT2: This JPL site has LOADS plus they're sorted by type. (if you're looking for images by hubble they're typically under universe iirc. There is another site though that is better, it's the complete NASA image archive.. just can't remember the damn url.

    EDIT3: Hubble archive I think this is the complete hubble archive.

    JPL's site is great! They have the photos organized and everything. I'm sure since the JPL is a division of NASA it has all the pictures available at the place I linked.
