Space Telescope

[supersonic]

Space Shuttle Discovery lifted a new space telescope to orbit for the LSA. A few targets, like Ida weren't visible at the time.
"It was the most beautiful launch I have ever seen," said a spectator," right after lift off the shuttle had that reddish glare that you normally see in orbit on a sunrise or sunset." In orbit Discovery quickly deployed the space telescope and left, but Discovery is still in orbit now. One of the first pictures received was one with Jupiter and Io."It was breath taking to see it for the first time." the Chef Scientist said. The space telescope will continue to scan the cosmos in search of new discoveries.

Neptune and Uranus were just little slits.

which add-on did you used to photograph the planets (or did you cheat a little? ), and which hubble add-on is that?

I used the Telescope MFD. I will find the Hubble addon in a minute.

I see the fuel gauge in the Jupiter pictures. What have you got in orbit?

Nothing, the Telescope MFD only works internally.
