      Explanation: Returning to science operations on June 14, the Hubble   
      Space Telescope used its new pointing mode to capture this sharp image   
      of spiral galaxy NGC 1546. A member of the Dorado galaxy group, the   
      island universe lies a mere 50 million light-years away. The galactic   
      disk of NGC 1546 is tilted to our line-of-sight, with the yellowish   
      light of the old stars and bluish regions of newly formed stars shining   
      through the galaxy's dust lanes. More distant background galaxies are   
      scattered throughout this Hubble view. Launched in 1990, Hubble has   
      been exploring the cosmos for more than three decades, recently   
      celebrating its 34th anniversary.
