New episode explores Edwin Hubble's 1925 galaxy discovery
Original: Neue Folge! Um was handelt es sich bei den verwaschenen Spiralnebeln am Himmel? 1925 beweist Edwin Hubble: Es sind Galax
A new episode of an astronomy series asks what the faint spiral nebulae in the night sky actually are, recounting how Edwin Hubble proved in 1925 that they are galaxies beyond the Milky Way, even though Hubble himself avoided the word 'galaxy'. The episode, presented by Franzi, explores an universe full of 'island worlds' and invites listeners to reconsider how humanity learned the true scale of the cosmos.
Why now: The release of a new astronomy episode retelling Hubble's landmark discovery is drawing attention from space enthusiasts.
