Hubble Space Telescope gallery

Hey folks,

Today in Science class, we talked about telescopes and the different types of telescopes. My hope is that, as a class, we will eventually build our own reflecting telescope.

We also talked about the Hubble Space Telescope, which is in orbit around Earth and takes some pretty remarkable pictures. The kids got to look at some of the pictures and were pretty excited to show their families...so...here's the link! Enjoy!

[EDIT] WOW! Go to the "image tours." I was disappointed that a lot of the pictures in the gallery don't have captions, but the image tours go into detail about the different parts of the pictures and what it is, exactly, that you're looking at! Enjoy!
