'The Hand of God'

Some time ago, NASA's Chandra X-ray observatory managed to get this phenomenal photo of the 'Cosmic Hand' a.k.a 'The Hand of God.' You can view their flickr page here.

Devotees say it resembles the hue of Krishna's skin and it looks like He is holding the Sudarsana chakra!



It really does look like a hand with a discus, doesn't it?

"The almighty Personality of Godhead, Śrī Kṛṣṇa, having observed that a great danger was befalling His unalloyed devotees, who were fully surrendered souls, at once took up His Sudarśana disc to protect them." - Srimad Bhagavatam 1.8.13
