"Hubble: 20 Years of Discovery" celebrates the achievements of one of the most popular and important scientific instruments in the history of exploration. Narrated by actor and writer Brent Spiner, this special video presentation takes viewers on a journey back in time and into the farthest reaches of the cosmos.

Hubble's discoveries have revolutionized nearly all areas of astronomical research, from planetary science to cosmology, and its images are unmistakably out of this world.

Spiner is best known for his portrayal of Lt. Commander Data, the sentient android in the iconic "Star Trek: The Next Generation" television series and films.
