How Hubble Space Telescope Images Are Made
Apparently Hubble's camera isn't a point and shoot. Each image is composed of several photos which are compiled and modified with image editing software. This video shows how it's done. I don't know about you but knowing how heavily Photoshopped each image is kind of loses a bit of the magic for me.
