 The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) is a space telescope that was
launched into low Earth orbit in 1990 and remains in operation.
 With a 2.4-meter (7.9 ft) mirror , Hubble's four main instruments
observe in the near ultraviolet, visible, and near infrared spectra.
The telescope is named after the astronomer Edwin Hubble.
 Hubble's orbit outside the distortion of Earth's atmosphere allows it
to take extremely high-resolution images with almost
no background light.
 Hubble's Deep Field has recorded some of the most detailed visible-
light images ever, allowing a deep view into space and time.
 Many Hubble observations have led to breakthroughs in
astrophysics, such as accurately determining the rate of expansion of
the universe.
