On Sunday I posted a link to the Hubblesite image they put up on Friday, to celebrate the anniversary of the HST. Beautiful image of the Lagoon Nebula.

What I didn’t do at that time, so as not to soil the experience of viewing such a pretty picture, is a rant about the redesign of the Hubblesite webpages.

Like so many sites, in an attempt to make it prettier, they’ve dumbed it down.

Sad.

It is an easy enough thing to construct a website such that it is still pretty for superficial viewers but still contains detailed information for interested geeks.
