Amazing images from the HST..

Very interesting to see the comparison of size as well, at each opposition.

Can't wait for 2016!

What's also interesting, is that some of the amateur images I see floating around are almost as good as the hubble shots! Well, not quite, but not bad considering the price and atmosphere difference :)

There's also a great picture Hubble took of the dust storm on Mars on the 28th October.
