Hubble's Best: 1994 and 1995
Spiral Galaxy
This is the core of the grand design spiral galaxy M 100, as imaged by the Hubble Space Telescope's Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC 2). The WFPC 2 contains modified optics that correct for Hubble's previously blurry vision, allowing the telescope for the first time to cleanly resolve faint structure as little as 30 light-years across in a galaxy which is tens of millions of light-years away.
