The world's most famous telescope is celebrating in style with new views of Mars, nebulas and a galaxy that reminds us of home.

Launching on 24 April 1990, the Hubble Space Telescope has had an out-of-this-world 35 years capturing some of the most amazing images of space. When it was first launched, Hubble had a tricky start, only sending back blurry images because of a fault with the telescope's mirror.

Budget cuts hitting U.S. government agencies like NASA don't seem promising for the Hubble Space Telescope, but there is still hope.
