First Hubble Pics Since Servicing Mission

Abit disappointing considering Hubble's usual capacity for resolution, but the WFC-3 has not yet been calibrated properly. Good to see the refurbished Hubble going again though. Link to BBC article Taken of the suspected Comet impact on Jupiter a few days ago. Better Jupiter than us!

Yeh, I saw this on the BBC News website too. It's excellent resolution, much better than when Hubble looked at Jupiter for the Shoemaker Levy 9 impact on Jupiter. This one was taken with the new WFC-3 'scope on Hubble though.
