Starry, Starry Night

Everything up and around the sky. Plus any sort of space or star themed decorations, art, poetry, music, etc. And I can't promise that there won't ever be something Star Trek related. =P

A meteor streaks against the background of the Milky Way, above the mountain fortress of Alamut. Alamut castle was built into the rock here in central Alboraz Mountains of Iran sometime in the late 9th century and was home to the legendary assassins that were featured in the Prince of Persia movie. It was also a center for libraries and education.

That is BOSS.

A panorama of the Milky Way over the summit of Mauna Kea, Hawaii.

I kind of wish that I could get like a huge wall-length poster of this and fill up the whole wall of a room.

Our sister galaxy, Andromeda. We will be seeing more and more of Andromeda within the next few billion years, because it is currently hurtling toward the Milky Way. Eventually, the two star clusters will collide and form a massive elliptical galaxy. And how cool is that?
