I've just seen a nice TV program dedicated to the Hubble Telescope

And noticed that funny piece

In the same image you can see clearly the Eagle nebula, distant 6500 light years, but you can't see the legends on the keyboard "distant" two meters. :pound:

Mr Hetster are you strange, aren't you ? :party:

So, did he remove them, or were they removed in edit? Maybe he rearranged the letters to spell something profane haha

Is not a compression artifact, the keyboard is definitely otaku, can be seen larger in other sequences.

Still, one wonders how he did it. It's also a horrible keyboard.

Labels might have disappeared like on my iBook G4 back in a day when those keyboards were in fashion.

there was a short while where ikea used them for display keyboards. fully functional apple keyboards with no lettering on them. they pop up on ebay from time to time.
