Hubble Science Conference: March 17-20, 2014

[image-36]"Science with the Hubble Space Telescope IV" is a conference being held at the Accademia dei Lincei in Rome from March 17 - 20, 2014.

This conference is designed to highlight the scientific breakthroughs made by the Hubble Space Telescope in its two decade-long life. There are three specific goals for this meeting, to:

  • Share the latest results from Hubble across the broad canvas of astronomy
  • Inspire the community of Hubble users to think how Hubble’s successor—the James Webb Space Telescope—will move their scientific field forward
  • Look further into the future posing the scientific questions that will shape the field of astrophysics in the next decade.

This conference will be five years after Servicing Mission 4 —the last manned mission to Hubble. It will kick off the 25th anniversary of Hubble’s launch celebrating the tremendous impact this observatory has had on science and society. This conference is sponsored by the European Space Agency (ESA) and NASA, and organized by ESA, the Space Telescope Science Institute and the Institute for Space Astrophysics and Planetology (Italy).

A close-up of a spiral galaxy, seen face-on. Its center is a bright white point, surrounded by a large yellowish oval with thin lines of dust swirling in it. From the sides of the oval emerge two bright spiral arms which wind through the round disk of the galaxy, filled with shining pink spots where stars are forming and more dark reddish dust. Many stars are visible in the foreground, over and around the galaxy.

The image is divided horizontally by an undulating line between a cloudscape forming a nebula along the bottom portion and a comparatively clear upper portion. Speckled across both portions is a starfield, showing innumerable stars of many sizes. The smallest of these are small, distant, and faint points of light. The largest of these appear larger, closer, brighter, and more fully resolved with 8-point diffraction spikes. The upper portion of the image is blueish, and has wispy translucent cloud-like streaks rising from the nebula below. The orangish cloudy formation in the bottom half varies in density and ranges from translucent to opaque. The stars vary in color, the majority of which have a blue or orange hue. The cloud-like structure of the nebula contains ridges, peaks, and valleys – an appearance very similar to a mountain range. Three long diffraction spikes from the top right edge of the image suggest the presence of a large star just out of view.
