... The most important tool you have to see the universe is not the large light buckets that are proliferating, but rather your eyes. ... Light enters the eye through the cornea, passes across the aqueous humor (the liquid behind the cornea), passes through the pupil and through the lens. ... After passing the lens, the light then crosses the "vitreous Humor" a jelly-like substance that fills the inner eye, and reaches the retina, the light sensitive tissue at the back of the eye. ...

http://hubblesite.org/newscenter/archive/releases/1996/22/text/ Probing the mysterious heart of the Crab Nebula, the tattered remains of a stellar cataclysm witnessed more than 900 years ago, astronomers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope have found that the Crab is even more dynamic than previously understood, based on a cosmic "movie" assembled from a series of Hubble observations. ... Because of this flickering, the neutron star is also called a "pulsar." ...

... Larry Fiscelli/UC, French Leger and Steve Bastian (both FNL) (and a seamster in Alamogordo) fabricated and installed the light baffle on Tuesday and finished it up on Wednesday--the weather was favorable, albeit windy.
