NASA manages to amaze the whole world again with an incredible image that was recorded by the Hubble telescope, the American space agency making a great effort to fulfill its objectives. Below you can see an image of a very distant galaxy that the Hubble telescope managed to record recently, it is named NGC 5468, and has been under careful monitoring by the Americans for a very long time already.
NASA has captured images of this galaxy in the past, but none of them were quite as clear as this one, but the Hubble telescope finally managed to record a picture that shows us as clearly as possible what it is millions of kilometers away. NASA has been trying to get a clear picture of this galaxy for about two decades, but only now has it managed to show us all how beautiful distant galaxies are.
NASA Amazes with an INCREDIBLE Image Recorded by Hubble
NASA has been monitoring this distant galaxy for so long that it managed to observe inside it, including the explosions of several supernovae, which is not so easy to observe in the universe. Those from NASA also claim that the position of this galaxy in the universe makes it perfect to be able to observe other supernova-type explosions with the help of Hubble, but of course this happens over time, and with a lot of anticipation.
“Despite being just over 130 million light-years away, the galaxy's orientation towards us makes it easier to spot these new 'stars' as they appear; we see NGC 5468 head-on, which means we can see the open spiral pattern of the galaxy in beautiful detail in images like this one from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope."
NASA claims that this galaxy is 130 million kilometers from Earth, and the only reason why we can see it so well is because it is directed entirely towards Earth and the Hubble telescope. What's more incredible is that the Hubble telescope has been in operation for 30 years, so the equipment used in it is outdated in every way, so we can only think of what it could record if it had better cameras.
Next year, NASA will send a new telescope into outer space to analyze the universe with state-of-the-art equipment, and this will bring us even clearer images of what is hidden in outer space.
