On April 25, 1990, NASA sent the Hubble Telescope into orbit in an effort to document the wonders of space. The Edwin P. Hubble Telescope explores space and takes pictures that scientists could only imagine, such as the first pictures of a black hole. Now that the Hubble Telescope has spent 30 years exploring space, NASA is allowing us to view the images that it took on our birthday.
The Hubble Telescope has a sizable archive of photographs from space that it has collected over its 30-year existence. To take these pictures, the telescope stays in our orbit around the clock. Therefore, NASA is disseminating photographs that the telescope has recorded on a certain day.
I hear you asking, “So, how can I find out the image that the telescope caught on my birthday?” As simple as Sunday morning, it is. Observe along:
- First, go to NASA s official page to check out the images.
- Next, select the date and month of your birthday.
- Click Submit .
The system will present you with an image of a planet, a nebula, or some interstellar objects after searching the database.
Currently, you can upload the image to social media and use the hashtag #Hubble30 to show your friends what the space telescope saw on your birthday.
So, below is the photo that the Hubble Space Telescope took on my birthday.
It is a picture of a nebula called N44C, which is a part of a bigger complex called N44 made up of numerous nebulas and young, hot, massive stars like our Sun.
What picture was taken by the Hubble Telescope on your birthday, then? Discover the answer, then let us know in the comments area.
