Find a new background photo for your computer desktop (and learn a little about space) at NASA’s Astronomy Picture of the Day archive. The archive features a jaw-dropping photo with an explanation by a professional astronomer for each day dating back to June 1995. This image of the Tarantula Zone is well worth looking at when you boot up your computer every day.
Also, check out The Big Picture’s roundup of photos from Oktoberfest in Munich. Flowers, knee socks, armor, roller coasters and, of course, lots and lots and LOTS of beer.
