... NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has detected a long-sought population of comets dwelling at the icy fringe of the solar system . The observation, which is the astronomical equivalent to finding the proverbial needle-in-a-haystack, bolsters proof for a primordial comet reservoir just beyond Neptune , currently the farthest planet from the Sun . ... The comet-disk lies just beyond Neptune and might stretch 500 times farther from the Sun than Earth . ... Comet Introduction Kuiper Belt Objects . ...

M81 is one of the classic grand design spiral arm galaxies. ... Hubble Space Telescope OBSERvations have detected Cepheid Variables in the some fields on the outskirts of M81 and thus M81 is a fundamental calibrator of the Extragalactic Distance Scale. This exposure is taken through a blue filter using re-imaging optics on a 52-inch telescope. ... The exposure time was 30 seconds. ... The Ultraviolet Image of M81 comes from the Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope which is flown on the Shuttle. ...
