The Story

Even scientists need glasses to see forever. So in 1990 NASA launched the Hubble Telescope into space to give those scientists a better view of what is out there in the dark night.

With their improved sight, the Hubble "eye in the sky" has recently brushed away the cobwebs in the sky and is now peering back to the beginning of time! In fact, one of the most recent discoveries by the telescope is a galaxy that is estimated to be 13 billion years old. With the Big Bang estimated at about 14 billion years ago, the scientists are truly getting close to seeing forever.
