What's beyond our Milky Way galaxy? Bubbles, of course! I decided to do some experimenting. This photo utilizes a dark tub filled with water and three additives: motor oil, cooking oil and liquid dish soap. I didn't alter the colors at all, so the yellow highlights must be the way the bubbles were catching the bright, low sun. However, the longer I stare at it, the more I see beautiful other worlds, waiting to be explored.
