Hubble Enters 100,000th Orbit
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope completed its 100,000th
orbit of Earth on the morning of August 11. In
commemoration of this event in its 18th year of
exploration and discovery, scientists at the Space
Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore, Md., aimed
Hubble at a dazzling region of celestial birth and
renewal. Hubble peered into a small portion of this nebula
near the star cluster NGC 2074. This nebula, imaged by the
Hubble Space Telescope on August
10, is about 170,000 light-years away.
