Just seen the top 10 Hubble photos. Absolutely mind-blowing. I just can't get my head around all this starting off in a singularity - a single point in space. Doesn't make any sense to me!

Recently, astronauts voted on the top photographs taken by Hubble, in its 16-year journey so far. Here's no. 1 - The Sombrero Galaxy - 28 million light years from Earth. The dimensions of the galaxy, officially called M104, areas spectacular as its appearance. It has 800 billion suns and is 50,000 light years across.
