HUBBLE SPOTS
GIANT SPACE ‘PUMPKIN’

2
00:00:04,448 --> 00:00:13,779
After 30 years in orbit, the Hubble Space Telescope
has made some truly scary observations.

3
00:00:13,779 --> 00:00:22,658
From the giant Tarantula Nebula...

4
00:00:22,658 --> 00:00:31,676
…to a magnetic monster galaxy!

5
00:00:31,687 --> 00:00:36,828
But none of those spooky sites compare
to Hubble’s most recent image... 

6
00:00:36,833 --> 00:00:43,347
...a giant, floating space pumpkin!

7
00:00:43,347 --> 00:00:53,616
What looks like two glowing eyes and a crooked, 
carved smile is really two galaxies colliding.

8
00:00:53,616 --> 00:01:04,463
The entire view is nearly 109,000 light-years 
across, approximately
the diameter of the Milky Way.

9
00:01:04,463 --> 00:01:13,926
Cataloged as NGC 2292 and NGC 2293, this spooky 
duo hides out in the constellation Canis Major.

10
00:01:13,926 --> 00:01:22,328
The overall pumpkin-ish color corresponds to the 
glow of aging, red stars within the two galaxies…

11
00:01:22,328 --> 00:01:35,780
...whereas the smile is bluish due to newborn star
clusters spread out along a newly forming dusty arm.

12
00:01:35,780 --> 00:01:50,347
While scary, this isn’t the first time Hubble 
has seen the universe looking back at us.

13
00:01:50,347 --> 00:02:01,835
In 2019, Hubble witnessed another spooky
galactic-sized ‘face’ floating in the stars…

14
00:02:01,835 --> 00:02:10,205
...and let’s not forget the dreaded Ghost Nebula…

15
00:02:10,205 --> 00:02:19,044
...or a giant flapping bat shadow in space!

16
00:02:19,044 --> 00:02:27,619
The brave Hubble Space Telescope 
continues its mission to uncover 
the mysteries of the universe…

17
00:02:27,619 --> 00:02:37,738
...no matter how scary they might be!
