Default The Hubble Space Telescope Is Working Again

The Hubble telescope's main camera is back on after being dormant for a month and it is already taking unbelievable pictures. Like this one of two galaxies colliding more than 400 million light-years away from Earth!

Two galaxies colliding! I can not wrap my brain around how awe inspiring space is. Just think about that. Two galaxies full of stars and planets colliding. Amazing.

Unbelievable. It was a good decision on NASA's part to boot the Hubble Space Telescope back up again because it has really opened our eyes to the extraordinary, and has given us a more advanced knowledge of our universe.

I wonder if NASA is working on an update to the Hubble, one more power with better tech. Then again we are probably wasting that money in Iraq.
