TIMELINE OF EDWIN HUBBLE
Compare and Contrast Yourself and Edwin Hubble
 THE HUBBLE TELESCOPE
The Hubble Space Telescope is named after Edwin P. Hubble, the American
astronomer who confirmed that the universe is expanding.

Since its launch in 1990, the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) has provided a dazzling
array of images that have awed and inspired the public. More than just pretty
pictures, the dozens of terabytes of data collected has provided insight into the
universe, from objects as close as the moon to the most remote galaxies, with
incredible photos of supernovas and nebulas in between.

Hubble Space Telescope Facts

• Hubble Space Telescope is about the size of a large school bus.
• It weighs 24,500 pounds. That’s just under two adult male African bush elephants.
• Hubble gathers energy from the sun using two 25-foot solar panels. It requires
much less power than one might think, averaging 2,100 watts of power usage. A
hair dryer requires about 1,800 watts.
• Hubble orbits the Earth at a cruising speed of 17,000 miles per hour and takes 15
minutes to rotate 90 degrees.
• Hubble has observed locations more than 13.4 billion light years away, meaning it
has seen light that existed in the universe 13.4 billion years ago.
• Astronomers using Hubble data have published more than 13,000 journal articles,
making it one of the most productive scientific instruments ever built.
