Hubble Space telescope








I chose this picture becasue i thought it was the most detailed one. You can tell how big it is and what it looks like from a good angle. It was a well taken and very clear picture.

STS-125 The Final Visit date: 6.6.08 Author: doesnt say

The article talks about what the problems were on the hubble space telescope. Also it talks about how they are going to repair it and how they did repair it. It shows pictures of what it looks like.

I thought the article was interesting becasue it talked about something i never knew about before. Im not really into that stuff, but after reading that article it was really good. The hubble space telescope is something really interesting to read about. It has a lot of problems but it explains how they are going to fix it so thats good. I enjoy reading that article. I wonder if they are going to totally be able to repair it.

The hubble space telescope has been repaired. What was repaired on it was the failed and faulty components and added new and improved cameras and scientific equipment. The new camera and spectrograph are designed to complement the scientific instruments already on the telescope. The Advanced Camera is for when they do Surveys. The people who replaced them were predecessors.
