This nebula-like cluster is so bright, so rich with star-like objects at the center it looks like a celestial cloud. I thought, maybe this is a section of space, magnified, telescoped and possibly viewed through a fish eye lens. But is it really? Click through to the full article to find out! Whatever it is, it was photographed by Norwegian photographer Christoper Jonassen.

NASA announced today that it has discovered the first "circumbinary planet"--a planet orbiting two stars. While the planet's officially called Kepler 16b, astronomers are already referring to it as Tatooine, after the home planet of Luke Skywalker in the Star Wars movies, which also had two suns (NASA even invited John Knoll of Industrial Light and Magic, the special-effects company behind Star Wars, to today's announcement).
