...simple, you'd think astronomers would have thought of it long ago, and you'd be right. "This technique was first proposed back in 1978," says Craig Mackay, of the Institute of Astronomy at Cambridge, the Lucky Camera's lead scientist, "and we first tried it in 1985." Back then, though, detectors were very slow; it took 10 seconds to snap each exposure, and it took all night on a supercomputer to make one usable image. "Now," says Mackay, "we can make images in real time...

"I get the question daily," says Barb, a newsstand employee who declined to give her last name per her manager's request. "Normally they just want to know where it is," she says, "but one guy asked me to take a picture for him. It really has become quite the spectacle."
