Hubble

As I’ve already mentioned I’m a huge fan of space exploration. So I was disappointed to read in The Independent today that budget cuts in the US could see the end of the Hubble space telescope. I guess when it comes to a choice between an illegal war which keeps the price of gasoline down, and something that increases our understanding of the universe adding a value to the sum of human knowledge that cannot be quantified in dollars, the price of gas wins hands down.

There are some beautiful images from Hubble here.
