Astronomy / Space Real images from ESO - in game?

My God! It's full of stars...

I got the Scientific American Hubble Space Telescope calendar at Christmas, the image for Feb is of Trumpler 14, in the Carina Nebula - absolutely beautiful image of blue-white stars burning hydrogen so fast they'll all go supernova in a couple of million years.

Would love to see this sort of detail in game.
 
And now about the remaining 2.3e13 (that's 23 Billion, or if you're of the short persuasion, 16 Trillion) of those images necessary for full sky coverage for each system in the game.
 
I would like the sky box to look more detailed, but not using a 2d picture. Its really only useful from SOL as they are 2D, what happens as I move through space and when I am off to the side of them? They wont change like a 3d object will.
