Scientific paper
In March 2007 the ESA/Hubble office of the Space Telescope European Coordinating Facility in Garching, Germany, embarked on the production of a video podcast; a production that aimed to reach out to a diverse and to some extent untapped audience in astronomy. The result would be The Hubblecast, a six-minute long video podcast. The Hubblecast would make use of the surge in popular on demand media to grab the attention of many who might have never come across Hubble's work. The aim was to explain the science and workings of the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope through the use of animations and commentary alongside high resolution Hubble images. Today the Hubblecast is produced in Full High Definition, possibly making it the world's first Full HD video podcast. Today with well over 1 million downloaded episodes so far the Hubblecast is going from strength to strength as one of the most popular science vodcasts in the world.
