哈勃太空望远镜
What's up this August? 🔭
Find out what cosmic objects are part of next month's Night Sky Challenge at the link in our bio.
Compare your views to Hubble's, like the ones seen here, as we celebrate the mission's 35th year!
If you don't have a telescope or binoculars, you can search for a local star party or club with NASA's Night Sky Network, also linked in our bio.
Image descriptions/credits:
1 - Ring Nebula. Viewed like a distorted donut, an inner circular nebula region glows in dark blue shades with faint stars viewed within. It's surrounded by a ring of bright teal, then an outer ring of reddish-orange. Black space with distant, faint stars fills the background. (NASA, ESA and the Hubble Heritage (STScI/AURA)-ESA/Hubble Collaboration)
2 - Wild Duck Cluster. Several stars, many with diffraction spikes, shine against black space. (NASA, ESA, STScI and P. Dobbie (University of Tasmania))
3 - C101. A large spiral galaxy fills the frame. A bright core of stars, just left of center. Dust-filled spiral arms wrap around toward the top, right, and bottom of the image. (NASA, ESA, and the LEGUS team)
