For over thirty years, the Hubble Telescope has gifted us with a kaleidoscope of celestial marvels. The latest addition to this legacya series of 30 new images, accompanied by expert insightsis a testament to the ongoing saga of discovery, guiding us into the depths of space for a richer cosmic understanding.
With investigations into everything from black holes to exoplanets, the Hubble Telescope has changed not only the face of astronomy but also our very sense of being in the universe. On the 30th anniversary of its launch into low-earth orbit, this updated edition of Expanding Universe presents 30 images, unveiling more hidden gems from the Hubbles archives.
Ultra-high resolution and taken with almost no background light, these pictures have answered some of the most compelling questions of time and space while also revealing new mysteries, like the strange dark energy that sees the universe expanding at an ever-accelerating rate.
The collection is accompanied by an essay from photography critic Owen Edwards and an interview with Zoltan Levay, who explains how the pictures are composed. Veteran Hubble astronauts Charles F. Bolden, Jr. and John Mace Grunsfeld also offer their insights on Hubbles legacy and future space exploration.
