The Flying Insect Eqivalent of the X-Wing Assault on the Death Star

Swiped over at FilmDrunk. This is incredible and you should definitely click-thru and watch it in hi-def over on You Tube. Thanks to hi-resolution slo-mo, you can actually see bees clinging to the backs of hornets, who then go spinning off into epic death spirals. (SPOILER) When the hornets finally infiltrate the hive, the film crew somehow managed to get macro footage of hornets pulling bee larave out of their cocoons and feasting on the lil' bee babies. Take-away — DO NOT FUCK WITH JAPANESE HORNETS.

Galaxy Profile

This is an edge-on shot of an entire galaxy taken by the Hubble Space Telescope.

NGC 4452, is a disk galaxy in the nearby Virgo Cluster, spanning 35,000 light years across and containing billions of stars.

I'm shocked at the relative two dimensionality of this. Not al all how I pictured a galaxy. But I suppose that's why it's called a "disk galaxy". Duh. Swiped over at Gizmodo.
