Acknowledgments

Credit for the success of the Hubble Space Telescope rightly belongs to an entire universe of people and organizations. First

and foremost are the citizens of the United States and Europe, who have steadfastly supported Hubble over the years with

their tax dollars and their enthusiasm. As a result, thousands of astronomers from around the world have successfully used

Hubble to probe the deepest mysteries of the universe and have shared their discoveries through both professional publica-

tions and public outreach. Educators and students worldwide have recognized in Hubble an important source of knowledge,

excitement, and motivation about science.

A small cadre of astronauts from NASA and ESA have taken significant personal risk to service Hubble, maintaining and

upgrading the spacecraft to keep it at the forefront of astronomical research. The Science Mission Directorate at NASA Head-

quarters, and the HST Program Office at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center have led the Hubble program over the years,

with major contributions to the observatory—both hardware and people—also provided by the ESA.

Hubble’s highly successful science program has been organized and guided by the Space Telescope Science Institute,

operated by the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, under contract to NASA. Last, but not least, many

dedicated NASA employees and dozens of first-class contractor organizations throughout the global aerospace industry

have designed, built, and successfully operated Hubble and its scientific instruments over a period spanning decades.

All these people and organizations should take pride in the scientific achievements described in this publication.

A detail from the Carina Nebula image on the front cover. A one-light-year tall “pillar” of cold hydrogen towers above a wall of the associ-ated molecular cloud. Star cluster Trumpler 14 appears to the right. A small nugget of cold molecular hydrogen, called a Bok globule, is silhouetted against the star cluster.
