Your ever-alert space-watcher is presenting a small series of pictures taken from "no-more-trouble-Hubble" that will definitely having you amazed, unable to chose a favorite. In this Hubble Images - AOL Research & Learn you will see thousands of stars being born, #2 shows you the death of a star, you'll even see one call the Bommerang (#13) which has two lobes of space matter shooting out from one star, incredible shot. The most studied, most interesting object ever seen is the Crab Nebula (#12). It first went supernova in 1054, as noted by the Chinese and Japanese astrologers, and we can see it happening. I most sincerely URGE you to read the captions for each jaaaw-dropping shot, and just be awed. Dial-up may take a moment, but once you've viewed them all, it then goes through at high speed.
For our beloved drawf "planetoid" Pluto, we've discovered two new satellites. These moons can be see in #15, with Pluto at the center. I dare anyone not to be astounded by the Swan Nebula (#10) Be breathless looking at #4, read the caption. The star in #16 started to die in 1767. I needn't explain further, just have a look, have a read.
