The Visible Universe (now with live updating)

...or considering the billions of years that this light takes to travel in allowing us to get these stagering shots, it's a just bit slower than "live". Definitely go full screen on this one. Controls are listed when you right click.

Bonus: the most in depth single photograph of, well, everything.
I guess it's good enough to adorn your desktop.


Or maybe this high rez capture of the Andromeda galaxy, courtesy of NASA's Swift satellite. It's more laptop shaped anyway.
