The Hubble Telescope has made about a million observations in the infinite universe. This telescope has helped mankind learn about the mysteries of the universe. Almost all the beautiful and unique galaxies we see today‚ are because of The Hubble Telescope. The technology aboard Hubble is one-of-a-kind and one of our most advanced piece of work. The telescope is named after Edwin Hubble‚ an astronomer who made great discoveries in his time. The Hubble Telescope is truly a masterpiece and has helped

The Hubble telescope is a telescope that takes pictures of the universe and has transformed the way scientists look at our universe. The Hubble telescope circles the Earth in 97 minutes at a speed of about 5 miles per second. The telescope has taken hundreds of thousands of fascinating pictures of our universe and all the amazing parts of it. The Hubble telescope was named after Edwin Hubble who had made some of the most important discoveries in astronomy. Hubble travels more then 150 million

The telescope was first invented by a Dutch eyeglass maker named Hans Lippershey in 1608‚ but it was Galileo who first commenced the astronomical discoveries by pointing the telescope towards the sky (Madoney‚ 2009). It is important to recognize Galileo’s work with telescopes‚ astronomical discoveries‚ society and

from earth. The Hubble telescope‚ named after the great scientist who confirmed the big bang theory‚ was the solution to this and it has been in space for the more than 20 years it was supposed to live. Over the time‚ the telescope has sent home so much information that mankind has realized how little they knew about the universe. This paper covers the needs for the Hubble telescope in space‚ the impacts that it has had in physics and science and what eventually happens to the telescope when its time

Telescopes Hans Lippershey (1570 - September 1619) was a Dutch lens maker. Lippershey is believed to be the first to apply for a patent for his design‚ a few weeks before Jacob Metius (a Dutch instrument maker and optician)‚ and making it available for general use in 1608. The telescope invented by Lippershey was composed of a convex and a concave lens‚ as this construction did not invert the image and had only a magnification of just 3x. Galileo’s telescope improved the original Dutch telescopes

Telescopes A telescope is an instrument that aids in the observation of remote objects by collecting electromagnetic radiation such as visible light. The first known practical telescopes were invented in the Netherlands at the beginning of the 17th century‚ using glass lenses. They found use in terrestrial applications and astronomy. Telescopes come in all shapes and sizes‚ from a little plastic tube you buy at a toy store for $2‚ to the the Hubble telescope which weighs several tons. Amateur telescopes

The Telescope (Reflecting) Introduction: The true beauty of the universe cannot be seen by just the naked eye‚ the telescope is controversially the most important optical instrument in history. Telescopes are widely used around the world and come in different shapes‚ sizes and go by a variety of different names. They can be used to detect noise and sound and even be used to study the stars and supernovas but are more commonly used to gain another perspective into space‚ watching planets such
