Το Hubble έχει φωτογραφήσει το σύμπαν μας στις πιο πολύχρωμες στιγμές του. Ένα νέο πανόραμα της NASA, που «κοιτάει» βαθιά και μακριά στο σύμπαν για πρώτη φορά περιλαμβάνει υπεριώδες φως, το οποίο κανονικά δεν είναι ορατό στο ανθρώπινο μάτι. Η φωτογραφία απεικονίζει περίπου 10.000 πολύχρωμους γαλαξίες.
