The Hubble Space Telescope has been in orbit for 19 years. Join us as we review some of the telescope's amazing discoveries as we use the Observatory's 16-inch telescope to look at Saturn (through the end of July), clouds of interstellar gas, clusters of stars, a spiral galaxy and a star with planets orbiting it.
