The Hubble telescope took new images of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.
Although it is not fully operational, the Hubble space telescope has taken unpublished images of the planets most distant from Earth that also make up the Solar System, and this Thursday NASA has published the material to the public.
According to the press release released by NASA, Hubble got exclusive shots of the “realm of the giant planets”: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.
