Perkil8r Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Just an observation I've made. The region in Orion of NGC 1973, 1975 and 1977, is refered to as the Running Man Nebula, but when I look at it, I don't so much see a running man, I see what looks more like a Phionix rising from the flames kind of thing. What do you make of it? Maybe it's one of thos ink blott type situations where everybody interprates it differently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 No I see a running man, can see it's legs and arms and body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catman161 Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Hmm interesting observation mike. Might have to have a re-look People do interpret things as individually so I guess we see what we we either want or are influenced to see. Then I course there's the multitude of other confounding factor that could influence how we all interpret images-bit heavy for here though lol! It's a Rorschach Test that you were likening it to in your first post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
