The First Hubble “Window”
A Special Advent Calendar

With the holidays fast approaching, the Boston Globe has posted a fitting Advent calendar on its website's photography blog. There aren't any little windows to open or candles to light though, instead each day Alan Taylor from the Boston Globe shows us a new, incredible photo taken by the Hubble Space Telescope. Sometimes a brand-new image, sometimes an older one, but always with a detailed description of just what we are looking at. So if the run up to Christmas has got you feeling stressed, check out the Hubble Advent calendar (which you can even subscribe to as an RSS feed). I think it's a nice idea.

The Second Hubble “Window”
Haas Schleifmaschinen and Hubble

As many of you know, we at Haas Schleifmaschinen have a particular fondness for Hubble. We see the Hubble as a symbol of our own inventive and innovative spirit – in the field of grinding technology. Which is why we selected the Hubble as the main visual element in our Multigrind® CB advertising campaign.

I wish you all a wonderful holiday season and a enjoyable last few weeks of the year!

Yours truly
Dirk Wember
