The Hubble Telescope has done more to chronicle the origin and evolution of the universe than any other instrument ever created. It has taught us that the universe is 13.8 billion years old, that just about every large galaxy features a black hole at its center, and that we can create 3-D maps of dark matter. Hubble Legacy features the most stunning imagery captured by the telescope from geysers of solar light to exploding stars, solar flares, and galaxies colliding, and also explains how Hubble has advanced our understanding of our very creation.
