and photography. Of the more than 100 classic Hubble images
that were selected by NASA's experts, the 20 most
significant are accompanied by commentaries by notable
scientists. Veteran astronauts from NASA's five remarkable
manned missions to maintain the telescope also contribute to
this volume, making it an authoritative account of a
magnificent scientific achievement.

Beyond its scientific contributions, twenty years of Hubble
research and imagery--ranging from our planetary neighbors
to the edge of time and space--have had a profound impact on
the world's imagination and spiritual growth, as documented
in this inspiring book.
