"Not to be left out on 2015's feverish buildup to "Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens" in December, Hubble released this very sci-fi view of a Herbig-Haro (HH) object -- basically a violent young star. This particular example seems to be channeling its own Star Wars spirit, producing a double-bladed lightsaber." -Dr. Ian O'Neill, scientist and #DiscoveryNews Space Producer Join us this week for an #instaspace #takeover! Today through Sunday, expert scientists will be sharing their favorite space images in honor of #Telescope, part of sciencechannel weekend on #Discovery. Image Credit: ESA/HUBBLE & nasa, D.
