Did you know that all #Hubble and #JWST images (and most things produced by @spacetelescope) are in the public domain?

That means you can do whatever you want with them (as long as it's legal), including charging admission to see your exhibit of T-shirts with JWST images printed on them, to help fund your Hubble-inspired tattoo.

Hubble is back doing science!

Here is one of the first new images #Hubble has taken since transitioning to one-gyro mode and restarting science operations June 14.

It features the lenticular galaxy NGC 1546, a member of the Dorado group of galaxies, about 58 million light years away.

The final galaxy in the 19 days of #PHANGS series is NGC 7496, a face-on, dusty spiral, as seen by #Hubble and #JWST.

It was discovered on September 5, 1834 by John Herschel, son of astronomer William Herschel and nephew of astronomer Caroline Herschel.

The galaxy is about 60 million light years (19 Mpc) away.
