    The Hubble Space Telescope is a technological
    wonder of our age that has fascinated millions with its
    beautiful and awe-inspiring images of the Universe.
    Fully updated with over 40 brand new images, this stunning
    new edition showcases the Hubble Space Telescope’s most
    spectacular—and most recent—discoveries such as the
    water plumes of Jupiter’s moon Europa, the beautiful
    Necklace Nebula, hidden structure in distant galaxies, and
    the mysteries of dark matter and energy.  Giles Sparrow’s expert narrative brings Hubble’s
    fascinating story up to date, telling how it became one of
    the most successful scientific projects of all time; charting its
    origins and troubled launch in 1990, the emergency repair of
    its defective mirror, the advances made by four subsequent
    servicing missions, and the lasting impact of the most amazing
    astronomical instrument ever created.
    Hubble—Legacy Edition  will take you on a journey
     through space in more than 400 glorious full-color images.
