Hubblecast 90: The final frontier

9 February 2016

Since October 2013 the NASA/ESA 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 programme.

You can subscribe to the Hubblecasts in iTunes, receive future episodes on YouTube or follow us on Vimeo.
Many other Hubblecast episodes are also available.
