Celebrating 36 years of discovery with the Hubble Space Telescope.

Collected on April 23, 2026, by one of Vantor's WorldView Legion satellites, this remarkable non-Earth image showcases Hubble from just 61.8 km [38.4 miles] away — an incredible perspective of one of humanity's most iconic scientific instruments.

With a space sample distance of 4.0 cm, Hubble's signature cylindrical body, gleaming thermal shielding, and extended solar arrays are clearly visible, along with the open aperture door at the front of the telescope.

For over three decades, Hubble has expanded our understanding of the universe — delivering breathtaking imagery and groundbreaking science that continue to inspire.

Proud to support the technologies and teams that make moments like this possible.
