20 Years of Hubble

Posted by timothy on from the another-nasa-fake dept.

GPLHost-Thomas writes "The Hubble Space Telescope roared into space 20 years ago to begin a career rewriting what we know about the universe around us: the age of the universe, the composition of galaxies' cores, how planets form, and much more. NASA released some of the most spectacular photos for the event."

    In my opinion, there is nothing quite like the scent of a lady's underwear.

    mmmm... the stink of wet panties.

    White with a streak of yellow reek,
    A shitty pink,
    A most unladylike stink,
    From a fragrant, lubricated leak.

    I think the Hubble Space Telescope is one of the finest things humankind has ever achieved. The photographs are awesome and the science irreplaceable. But I could never understand why it was named after a baseball player. I mean, sure he was a great pitcher and all but what does that have to do with astronomy?
