95 Million-pixel Image












What more could we ask for as professionals than a 95 million 
pixel sensor.  The Kepler space telescope leaves the amateur pixel hounds reeling.  The Kepler will be searching for new earth like planets during it's 3.5 year mission.  The idea is to prove that life exisits elsewhere in the Universe - finally! It' will aim 
at the Cygnus constellation a region of 4 million stars paying even closer attention to 10,000 of them.  (Wow, man's ingenuity is astonishing!).  For more on this here' the Post's story (Kepler).
