Hubble Space Telescope Mrs. Ott Example

History Orbits 370 miles above Earth Building began in 1977 by NASA Named after scientist Edwin Hubble Placed in space by Discovery Space Crew

What is it? Reflecting telescope Records information within visible, ultraviolet, and infrared light spectrum Hubble Telescope orbits Earth

How is it used? Cameras view distant celestial objects High resolution images are produced Spectrograph deconstructs chemical make-up of planets

Aided in finding the universe is 13.7 billion years old Scientists have viewed stages of forming planets Planet orbiting a distant star 2011 Nobel Peace Prize: Expanding Universe Data Scientific Contributions Awards

Conclusion The Hubble Space Telescope has played an important part in investigating questions about our universe. It will continue to be an important scientific tool for decades to come. Birth of a star
