"The Columbia tragedy was so starkly overwhelming, I had to put it to pixels somehow. The seven brightest stars in the image are based roughly on the
Pleiades - though in a different configuration." - Wellyn Blakeslee.

Thanks Wellyn.

Our thoughts at FirstScience, and throughout the world I'm sure, go out to
the families of the brave men and women who have so tragically been killed.
