On August 30 2001, I became intrigued with easily visible, equally easily
dismissable networks of faint, thin, crooked, connected, continuous
threads,
discernable with patient scrutiny of almost all deep sky images at visible
and infrared ranges.

Artifacts? Or?-- immense filaments of H, He, and dark
matter, lit by intense UV from the earliest very massive
stars, "...during the first 10E8 years of the history of
the universe at redshifts between 50 and 10...,"
Prof. Richard B. Larson, Sci. Am. Dec 2001, and
http://www.astro.yale.edu/larson/papers/Noordwijk99.pdf
[7 pages]. This very early intense UV is now redshifted
into the visible and IR bands, and may supply about half of
the current cosmic IR background. The filaments are
generally as thin as 1 pixel.

Keep in mind that all Hubble images are computer-processed and enhanced.
This is part of the 'fix' required due to the spherical aberration of the
main mirror. You may be seeing simple pixel artifacts. Or, you may be
'seeing' patterns that aren't there (like Percival's Martian canals). At
any rate, I can't seem to see any such objects. But then, I may not have
been patient enough.

specific guide for seeing Murray mesh in a 1.89 MB Hubble photo of Abell
1689:

2004 June 19 Thanks, greywolf24 for your civil, reasoned comments.

To zero in on seeing what I am talking about, jump to the link below to
image/f ,
a 1.89 MB Tiff image of a recent Hubble photo of Abell 1689.

http://hubblesite.org/newscenter/new...003/01/image/f

Note the foreground galaxy at the upper left corner, which has a bright
center, about 1 cm wide.

Shift your attention 2 cm to the right from the right edge of the white
center. Relaxed scrutiny will reveal a mesh of minute crooked reddish
filaments against a fuzzy, light yellow-green background.

After a few minutes, having trained yourself to notice these delicate
textures, shift your attention 1 cm further to the right. You probably will
notice that the reddish filaments become gradually blacker and several times
thicker.

After a few minutes, try slowly focussing further to the right, 1 cm at a
time. You probably will notice that the black filaments are everywhere in
the background, when not overridden by very bright forground objects.

A number of middle-ground galaxies are stretched out into thin arcs by
gravitational lensing. I see no signs that the background Murray mesh is
affected.

I conclude that the evidence indicates the presence of an actual 3D mesh,
far behind even the tiniest galaxies.

I am not sure if the background further behind the mesh is fuzzy green, or
is itself a continuation of the reddish and black Murray mesh into a more
distant green mesh.

I am very glad to get civil serious or playful feedback from various points
of view.

Can anyone help me find a purely random dot image, about 1 MB, with roughly
equal amounts of pixels for black, white, red, orange, yellow, green, blue,
violet, so we can all explore what kind of artifacts may be seen?

In mutual service, Rich

background filament networks (Murray mesh) in deep sky photos-- noise
artifacts or early cosmic structure? Boehringer: Murray 2004.06.15 rmforall

Try it with selections from the recent Hubble photo of Abell 1689 at

http://hubblesite.org/newscenter/new...2003/01/image/

http://hubblesite.org/newscenter/new...003/01/image/f

This 1.89 MB TIFF image at 1X or 2X clearly show myriad red and black
filaments in what I intrepret as a deep 3D mesh, which can been seen behind
as well as between the translucent foreground galaxies. I haven't seen any
signs of gravitational lensing, which might be because they are too far
behind the lensing cluster to be "in focus".
