Hubble telescope gets new camera, to look even farther

[Midnight Mike]

The new camera is designed to look deeper into the universe, perhaps as far back as some 500 to 600 million years before the Big Bang, with observations in the ultraviolet and infrared regions of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Hubble has to be one of the greatest pieces of technology ever made. The pictures it has brought back from deep space is truly amazing. It will be interesting to see the images it brings back with the new camera systems. On a side note the Europeans just launched their own telescope satellite to explore deep space.
