Abstract

FeaturesASTRONOMY ● The Hubble Space Telescope is often lauded for its ability to see in ultraviolet wavelengths, which for 35 years has helped astronomers unravel secrets of far-flung stellar nurseries, ancient galaxies, the chaotic environs around black holes and more (see Page 50). This UV vision also reveals interesting quirks about objects closer to home. Hubble's observation of Mars (composite UV and visible light image shown) in December unveiled a shroud of water-ice clouds that gave the Red Planet a wintry look. — Cassie MartinPHOTO (COLOR) [Extracted from the article]
