Pretty pictures for sure, however the Hubble Space Telescope went into orbit with an incorrectly ground primary mirror, causing it to suffer from a disability called "Spherical Aberration" which meant the instrument could not be focused properly.
Despite some experts said the SA could have been fixed by adjusting the secondary mirror, rather than admit the whole thing was "space junk," NASA sent several highly expensive fixit missions aloft to fit a box of tricks they said would make everything work.
An assertion that similarly met with scorn from those in the know, on the grounds that clumsy, gloved up astronaut "space walkers," were not able to guarantee the tolerances of "one 50th the thickness of a human hair" that were required.
While the same detractors say the marvelous images attributed to Hubble like the ones we have here, have in fact been taken by image stabilized ground based 'scopes .. that or they finally got around to adjusting the secondary mirror, that is unless the fixit missions did permanent damage ..
Maybe the whole Spherical Aberration thing was bs from the start, that the out of focus star images they released only got that way because they deliberately left the instrument unfocused, in an elaborate scheme to extract more $$$ from the government thru similarly bs fix missions.
All the users saying this is fake or cgi are working for the feds, and playing their part in a psyop - join a forum for the sole reason to support stuff that make other user seem like they are morons.
Just look at how quickly they made comments saying this is cgi or fake. Or that the earth is achtchually flat. Block and move on.
'All images from Hubble are monochromatic grayscale, taken through a variety of filters, each passing specific wavelengths of light, and incorporated in each camera. Color images are created by combining separate monochrome images taken through different filters. This process can also create false-color versions of images including infrared and ultraviolet channels, where infrared is typically rendered as a deep red and ultraviolet is rendered as a deep blue'

Then hubble found higher red shifted quasars in front of low red shift galaxies. Also different red shift objects connected to each other.
Cosmology is fake
