Astronomers’ Top 10 Amazing Pictures taken by Hubble Space Telescope After correcting an initial problem with the lens, when the Hubble Space Telescope was first launched in 1990, the floating astro-observatory began to relay back to Earth incredible snapshots of the 'final frontier' it was perusing. Recently, astronauts voted on the top photographs taken by Hubble in its 16-year journey so far. Remarking in the article from the Daily Mail, reporter Michael Hanlon says the photos “…illustrate that our universe is not only deeply strange, but also almost impossibly beautiful.” (Nov 25th, 2006)
