Hubble Telescope

Did anyone watch the program this week on the Hubble telescope. Incredible images of the solar system, and the distance of the images taken is mind blowing.

Science and technology is amazing.

Didn't see the programme but it is an amazing bit of kit and this new one is even better.

Hubble actually only takes black & white images .. the colour is added by taking additional images using red, blue and green filters allowing the scientists to add colour later.
