Sharing some of my favorite #Hubble images from the #NASA archives to commemorate the space telescope’s 33rd anniversary. We should take a moment to appreciate the beauty and wonder of the universe.
Information about the images + Hubble facts, a thread: 1/x
#HLF: a stunning image, 16 years in the making, comprising thousands of snapshots and representing one of the widest views of the universe ever captured. It includes observations from the eXtreme Deep Field and captures the galaxy assembly in ultraviolet to near-infrared light.
One of the most visually stunning images #Hubble has captured. This is the giant nebula #NGC2014 and its neighbor #NGC2020, part of a star-forming region in the #LargeMagellanicCloud—a satellite galaxy of the #MilkyWay, about 163,000 light-years distant.
This is #NGC2525, a captivating galaxy located in the constellation of #Puppis, nearly 70 million light-years from Earth. It is notable for being home to a supermassive black hole. It is being observed by the #HubbleSpaceTelescope to measure the universe's expansion rate.
#Hubble captured a stunning image of #Jupiter from a distance of 653 million kilometers from Earth. The image shows the giant planet's turbulent atmosphere, a new storm brewing, and a changing #GreatRedSpot. Also, the image features Jupiter's icy moon #Europa.
