That pic labeled "Deep field" is, in my opinion, the most amazing of all the Hubble pics. We see points of light with our eyes and telescopes. Hubble looks in between those points and sees thousands of galaxies. That little dose of reality is hard to even fathom.

Incredible. I have followed the Hubble story ever since it was launched, and its achievments are truly awesome. What I dont understand is why they cant raise money to fix it. Many say "Its not in NASAs budget." So whats wrong with raising private funds from all the scientists who want to save it? I bet they would pony up tens, if not hundreds of millions to fund a repair mission, but since I have not heard a word about this I am guessing its not an option. Does anyone know why??

I love the pics of the Cats Eye nebula. Have you seen the one where they had 2 shots of it separated by s few years? They were put together in an animated gif. You can actually see the nebula expanding. Quite remarkable.
