Some of the most beautiful images I have ever seen can be found here, in the gallery of Images from Science, a photographic display of scientific images in various mediums. Some are deeply moving, while others are highly revealing. All of them are simply wonderful expressions of what science gives humanity.
There is so much beauty in the world, if only we open our eyes to it and see. Science has always revealed this beauty in a way that no other mechanism could - with the awe and wonder of a child looking at the stars, and the deep curiosity of that same child, always questioning the nature of existence, reality, and the world. I don't really understand how anyone, having seen these images, could ever have a bad view of science ever again.
