Your bandwidth can't handle it. Your RAM can't handle it!

Be GLAD I did not embed that.

There's no way I'm going to set here and download that thing.

C'mon! It's only a 400 megabyte TIF image!

... I'm glad I didn't click it... 400MB? Ridiculous...

Actually I just rounded it... DOWN!

And by the way, it may be that size, but if you can handle it, you get a truly detailed image of a galaxy type thing.

The resolution on that image must be huge.

Specifically, 12,000 x 16,000

Quote:The picture above is a stunning new release from Hubble (click it for a higher-res version). It’s almost as awesome as the galaxy itself: the original image is 12,000 x 16,000 pixels in size, making it the largest image of a spiral galaxy ever produced. The images span nearly a decade and were originally taken for several different projects (it was nice to see the name of my old friend Kip Kuntz as the head of one of those projects; he assisted me way back when on my very first trip to Baltimore to work on Hubble data for my PhD). It took 54 separate Hubble pointing to span the face of this galaxy.

If you have the stomach (and the broadband) for it, you can download the 455 megabyte full-resolution version, but you’d have to be insane. On my monitor, it would be ten screens in width and 20 in height!

Here's a piddly WUSS version! <img src="http://www.badastronomy.com/pix/bablog/2006/hubble_m101.jpg">

My computer is a piece of crap. It could never handle that. That is awesome though.

I tried to download it yesterday (here at work) and got no luck, but only because the program that tried to open it fucked up. I was going to go into the Temp Internet files to fish it out, but I had to leave. So today, I unwittingly cleared all my Temp Internet files, so I have to download it again.

Save to desktop this time, rather than doing a direct open.

Right click to save it rather than open it.

Yeah, that's what I did.

Windows Picture and Fax Viewer won't even touch it, and Microsoft Office Document imagining just gives me a black screen (with an error message that says, "One or more pages of this could not be viewed).

Here's the result of Microsoft Office Picture Manager trying to open it:

What, those don't support TIF files? Try Paint Shop.

Also, a gig of ram has it's uses.
