See Space and Savor the Images

"Click, etc." was the portal into which I often went in recent years as I visited various space web sites. I want to recommend several good space photo sites where you can see or download similar breathtaking images:

• Astronomy Picture of the Day - a NASA site
• NASA Return to Flight - portal for news about any upcoming or current space flights
• Space.com - a large and all-encompassing portal to just great stuff
• Hubble site - see the latest from the Hubble space telescope

As a child I read lots of science fiction. At that time whatever visualization occurred came from my limited imagination. Now is very different because of the Hubble, space flight with streaming video, satellite imagery of killer hurricanes, or even a blurred Google image of the Vice-President's residence.

We take all these images for granted. They are still quite magical to my mature eyes and "space-kid" inside. Try a visit to one of these sites every now and then. It will help restore your perspective on reality.
