Synopsis
Hubble: 15 Years of Discovery forms a key element of the European Space Agency's 15th anniversary celebration activities for the 1990 launch of the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. As an observatory in space, Hubble is one of the most successful scientific projects of all time, both in terms of scientific output and its immediate public appeal. Hubble continues to have an enormous impact by exploiting a unique scientific niche where no other instruments can compete. It consistently delivers super-sharp images and clean, uncontaminated spectra over the entire near-infrared and ultraviolet regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. This has opened up new scientific territory and resulted in many paradigm-breaking discoveries., As an observatory in space, the Hubble Space Telescope is one of the most successful scientific projects of all time, both in terms of scientific output and its immediate public appeal. The only Hubble Heritage picture book endorsed by NASA and ESA, this lush 15th Anniversary volume enables the reader to peer deeply into the wonders of the Universe in full color with unprecedented clarity and resolution. The photos are unmatched in competing titles, because the images have been prepared straight from the data by scientists to reach the highest possible quality., Hubble: 15 Years of Discovery forms a key element of the European Space Agency's 15th anniversary celebration activities for the 1990 launch of the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope.
