LuckyCam was created by dmcdona
mr.caltech.edu/media/Press_Releases/PR13030.html
Check out either of the two websites listed at the end of the press release. I prefer the second as it shows the core of M13 before and after the LuckCam got a hold of it. Impressive stuff.
Best if you can view animated Gifs - my firewall was blocking them...
Cheers

How many organs would I have to sell to get one? The difference in the Cats Eye amd M13 is unreal. With this we may be a lot closer to getting an image of an extrasolar planet? (But will it be a planet if it does not orbit the Sun? :lol: )
