discovered that at the center of galaxies, black holes exist and by focusing on a single part of space more than 2,000 galaxies jumped into view. Within the Orion Nebula, new stars can be seen being formed. While focusing on Jupiter, a comet was discovered that was on a collision course with the planet. It gave the scientific community a chance to see what happens when it collided – and a glimpse into the scenario that killed off Earth’s dinosaurs 65 million years ago. Jupiter is made of gases, so the
