A movie from the Hubble telescope
Duration : 0:0:24
The video starts looking at Pluto’s moon, Charon, and it visits all the planets of our solar system, including Earth. Then we move 100 light years away to circle the Sun, away again to 15.000 light years, travelling outside the galaxy, to finally travel 500.000 light years away from it.

In January and March 2009, Hubble took advantage of a rare opportunity to record Saturn when its rings are edge-on, resulting in a unique movie featuring both of the giant planet’s poles. Saturn is only in this position every 15 years and this favourable orientation has allowed a sustained study of Saturn’s almost symmetric northern and southern lights. At the same time Saturn was approaching its equinox so both poles were equally illuminated by the Sun’s rays.
These recent observations have allowed researchers to monitor the behaviour of both Saturn’s poles in the same shot over a sustained period of time and to study the planet’s northern and southern aurorae simultaneously. Given the rarity of such an event, this new footage will likely be the last and best equinox movie that Hubble captures of our planetary neighbour. Besides the double aurora show, the movie also features an added bonus, as some of Saturn’s moons, or satellites, are seen passing the disc of their parent planet.

Original Air Date 2005 — We search the night sky wondering what lies out there but our telescopes could only take us so far. As far as the light of the universe has traveled to reach us its way is blocked in its finale mile by the blurring effect by our atmosphere. Astronomers realized to capture the pristine light of the universe they would need to put a telescope into outer space. For fifteen years the Hubble Space Telescope has been capturing breath taking images of Stars, Galaxies, Nebulas and more. But after fifteen years in space the light from the fabled telescope is now fading. The question before NASA and the public can Hubble be fixed by robots or will it take a daring rescue in space. Is Hubbles cosmic rein now coming to and end?
