Images of the Infinite: Since its deployment in 1990, the Hubble Space Telescope has provided us with spectacular, awe-inspiring images and enriched our understanding of the universe. These images help scientists to document the life cycle of stars. The Hubble Deep Field image has provided scientists with one of the deepest core samples ever taken of the universe. This program highlights the history and top science findings of the telescope, as well as taking you on a tour through the solar system, the Milky Way Galaxy and to the limits of the visible universe using spectacular Hubble images.
