Take a look at the enigmatic galaxy Messier 106 with SpaceRip!
Although it may not look particularly unique, some of its features have baffled astronomers for years. Messier 106 has a supermassive black hole at its centre. Although this is true for most galaxies, this black hole is particularly active and hungry, gobbling up nearby material at a startling rate.

I’ve been obsessing over the evolution of gif language on Tumblr lately.
In ancient pre-Tumblr times (aka Livejournal), if we wanted to talk about how something in our lives made us feel, we’d use words and sentences and paragraphs in order to say “I saw this thing and it made me so happy” or “I had this thing happen and it made me so sad.” If we were sophisticated, we’d accompany that post with a mood icon or an emoticon.
Being the advanced society I imagine Tumblr to be, we no longer have to use sentences and emoticons. We’ve figured out how to express ourselves by finding moments within common points of culture (movies, tv, YouTube videos) and posting that moment, that emotion, as a single 500kb reaction gif.
This is happy.
