	Please add corresponding numbers to the photos.

	Fantastic idea... but a couple of drawbacks. First of all, I think nebulae are used too much; the names of the nebulae aren't widely known. And distinguishing between the #20 and #21 is harsh, though #21 is just an artist representation because is it hard to get that kind of photo from the inside of the galaxy. And Callisto tricked me- I thought it looked like a bunch of stars!

	Okay, I have changed the pictures to have numbers on them and I have given hints for some of the nebulae and galaxys.

	please accept "pillars of life" for no.10 as this is its common name

	Sorry. You have to know it's real name.

	#21 is not the Milky Way. It may be an artist's representation of what the Galaxy would look like from out of the plane, but it is in no way a "close-up image" of the Milky Way. Maybe swap it for the Whirlpool, if you don't want to use a real all-sky image of our own galaxy.

	#21 isn't even the artist's representation of the milkyway. It's not even a spiral galaxy, it's a barred one. looks like NGC1300

	by the way it says just under where you are supposed to input the answer 0/24 awnsers correct. Please correct your mispeeling. Ohter than that great quiz

	"Pillars of Creation" is the term for those structures within the Eagle Nebula. Also, #21 is a completely bogus answer and needs to be removed. It's misleading and scientifically inaccurate, and almost insulting. Nobody could possibly guess that based on actual evidence.

	mitchellshazia:	Nov 19th, 2011 at 22:26 GMT		2 points
	There is no possible way that 21 is the Milky Way because in order to get an image of it we have to send a satellite outside it. Which we can't do yet.
