With the release of these images, astronomers have declared Hubble a fully rejuvenated observatory.
What resemble dainty butterfly wings are actually roiling cauldrons of gas heated to more than 36,000 degrees Fahrenheit. The gas is tearing across space at more than 600,000 miles an hour — fast enough to travel from Earth to the moon in 24 minutes!
There is a small group of images from refurbished Hubble Telescope for you to look at and download. The one above is just one to pick from. Enjoy!
