"What do you know about spherical aberration?"
"when amateurs build mirrors and do it sloppily they get what's called a downturned edge, and on different radii of the mirror it focuses the light on different parts of the optical axis and it's physically impossible to ever focus a telescope; they're useless."
"Well you launched Hubble Space Telescope with a spherically aberrated mirror."
My favourite space images from Hubble space telescope. Thank you so much for giving us the stunning visuals of galaxies, stars and nebula. Happy 35th anniversary to the Hubble space telescope ðŸ”
Since my last nebula colorpicked flags post blew up, I figured I do another one but with only the sunset aroace flag (it’s like my favorite flag to colorpick).
