Via BBC News: Hubble Space Telescope Picture​


"The Hubble Telescope has been peering into some of the deepest recesses of the universe for two decades - and is now celebrating its 20th birthday.
Take a look at some of the sights it has seen in that time with Professor Alec Boksenberg from the Institute of Astronomy in Cambridge - who was on the European team that helped build Hubble."

Enjoy the fascinated picture series with commentary here.

I spent the few minutes I allow myself for lunch viewing this today.
I never grow tired of the amazing images Hubble has presented to us these past 20 years.
It makes one feel small and insignificant, viewing the unimaginable depth of the cosmos.

Within a closer realm, NASA has just released the first images from the SDO launched in February.
It appears we're going to have some equally breathtaking images of our own star.
