    Someday (and maybe even soon) an image like that will be able to turned into wallpaper and you’ll be able to makeover your grotto into the man cave Hugh Hefner would die for!

    I was able to have a similar experience some years back… I went out one night with a friend to a relatively dark location where he had his 12″ reflecting telescope set up. I was able to simply point the telescope anywhere in the direction of Coma Berenices — without aiming at anything specific — and when I looked in the eyepiece, there would be a galaxy in the field of view.
