US-SPACE-HUBBLE HERITAGE TEAM-ANNIVERSARY IMAGE
This NASA Hubble Heritage Team image released 02 October, 2003 shows the Sombrero Galaxy. HHT astronomers, who assemble many of the NASA Hubble Space Telescope's most stunning pictures are celebrating their five-year anniversary with the release this image. One of the largest Hubble mosaics ever assembled, this magnificent galaxy is nearly one-fifth the diameter of the full moon. The team used Hubble's Advanced Camera for Surveys to take six pictures of the galaxy and then stitched them together to create the final composite image. The photo reveals a myriad of stars in a pancake-shaped disk as well as a glowing central bulge of stars.
