HST is used to study the power sources and the interaction-induced tidal disturbances within the most luminous galaxies in the local universe -- the Ultra-Luminous IR Galaxies (ULIRGs) -- through the use of I-band images with WFPC2 and H-band images with NICMOS. Such images are probing for the first time the fine-scale structures in the strong collision-disturbed morphologies of these rare and exotic galaxies.
