“Birthday Wishes for Hubble” begins with a short background of the Hubble Space Telescope and its mission. The article describes the magnitude of data that Hubble sends back to Earth and how astronomers use that data worldwide; then it gives examples of some of the amazing images that the telescope has captured, such as supernovas and nebulae. An accompanying educator’s guide includes discussion questions and answers as well as definitions for key terms.
