Hubble Space Telescope

Hubble isn’t just famous for its photos, it’s a science powerhouse packed with mind-blowing stats. In this video, we break down some of the wildest numbers behind the telescope that changed how we see the universe. From astronaut upgrades to 1.6 million observations, Hubble’s done a lot in 30+ years.

As part of ESA/Hubble’s 35th anniversary celebrations, the European Space Agency (ESA) is sharing a new image series revisiting stunning, previously released Hubble targets with the addition of the latest Hubble data and new processing techniques.
