First Images from Rebooted Hubble: Astronomers Peer at Oddball Galaxies



These two peculiar galaxies are part of a program to survey oddball galaxies scattered across the sky.

These early snapshots demonstrate Hubble's return to full science operations, following correction of a computer anomaly aboard the spacecraft. Normal science observations were restarted on July 17, at 1:18 pm EDT. Among the early targets are globular star clusters in other galaxies and aurorae on the giant planet Jupiter, in addition to a look at bizarre galaxies.
