Later on, when Sir Edmund Burton urges the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom to mobilize the British military, a TV screen in the Prime Minister's office shows images of Cybertron coming from the Hubble Space Telescope which are credited as coming from ESA which jointly operated the telescope with NASA.
