  There was an image in NASA's Astronomy Picture of the Day last week that shows something beautiful.

  We think of Space as an empty void, which from our perspective it mostly is. But if you scale up into the ubermacro, it becomes clear that we live in a vast morass of gloop - like we're found in the swirls of a coffee cup or curling whorls of smoke from a cigarette. It's all round us.
