If these were taken with the "old" Hubble I can't wait to see what the new and improved version looks like. I don't think, that new images will be with much better resolution, than old ones. Old images were taken in UV by FOC camera and these images were diffraction limited. All new cameras in Hubble have bigger pixel sizes. But new cameras have much better sensitivity, so I expect images with much better contrast. -------------------- |
