The Final Frontier: Galaxy Clusters | Hubble

The Final Frontier: Galaxy Clusters | Hubble

Hubblecast 90: Since October 2013, the NASA/European Space Agency Hubble Space Telescope has been observing some of the most massive structures in the Universe—galaxy clusters. Using the magnification effect caused by their mass, Hubble can look deeper into the Universe than ever before. In this new Hubblecast, Dr J talks about the goals and the achievements of this campaign, called the Frontier Fields program.
