Live space photos

[jmb]

Can someone please help!!
I previously came across a site offering time accessing live photos from the Hubble Station (i think)
unfortunately, i did not save the site in favourites and cannot really remember where it is now.
I am pretty sure it was the hubble space station, hope someone can help, as i have been thinking it would make an interesting gift for a friend.
i have not been able to find anything on the hubble site, so i hope someone can offer some assistance.
thankyou

I don't think you can get live images from the Hubble Space Telescope - the images that you see looking all pretty in full colours are actually composites pictures of red, green, blue and a few other wavelengths of light. So they would need some processing to get them to that stage, which means time (several months even, if you look at the dates they are taken). I think you must be confusing another live site with Hubble, even though I can't think of any site that offers live images per se.

This may be the site you are thinking of Janine.

thanks for responding.
The Slooh site was not the one i visited, but it might be worth a try.
the site i am thinking of is similar in that it required a fee to access live telescope images.
thanks again
