I doubt if any images older than that version of Star Wars show this ring. Therefore it must be the Death Star.</description></item><item><title>Space telescopes team up</title><link>http://cosmiclog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/06/06/1118512.aspx#1124918</link><pubDate>Mon, 09 Jun 2008 14:09:42 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1124918</guid><dc:creator>Todd, Billerica, MA</dc:creator><description>Too much Sci-fi on the brain JC? &amp;nbsp;hehe</description></item><item><title>Space telescopes team up</title><link>http://cosmiclog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/06/06/1118512.aspx#1125006</link><pubDate>Mon, 09 Jun 2008 14:37:29 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1125006</guid><dc:creator>DP, NJ</dc:creator><description>JC - It can't be the Death Star because that took place in a galaxy far far away. &amp;nbsp;This is in our own galaxy.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description></item><item><title>Space telescopes team up</title><link>http://cosmiclog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/06/06/1118512.aspx#1126350</link><pubDate>Mon, 09 Jun 2008 22:54:43 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1126350</guid><dc:creator>Ian Parke</dc:creator><description>I hope that soon we spot &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;planets in other solar systems &amp;nbsp;like Earth .
