It orbits in Geospace.
Geospace is defined as the area of outer space near the Earth. It includes the ionosphere, magnetosphere and the Van Allen Belts.
Most artificial satellites operate within this region and it's called low earth orbit
The HST was only launched once, in 1990 .
It has only been launched into orbit once. That was in 1990.
The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) is a space telescope that was carried into orbit in April 1990.
The shuttle that would put the Hubble into orbit finally launched on April 24, 1990.
The HST orbits at 569 km (353 miles) above Earth, orbits it in 97 minutes at a speed of 17,500 miles per hour (28,500 km per hour). In one second the HST travels almost 5 miles!
The HST was only launched once, in 1990 .
HST orbits the Earth approximately 15 times daily, or about 96 minutes per orbit. You can see its orbital track and learn more about it at the link below.
HST has been in continuous orbit since it was deployed in 1990.
The Hubble Space Telescope (or HST) is not in a geostationary orbit. The HST is located at an average altitude of 600 Km. Earths' geostationary orbit is at approximately 36 000 Km.
HST is the Hubble Space Telescope and was launched inside of space shuttle "Discovery" in 1990.
The symbol for Geospace Technologies Corporation in NASDAQ is: GEOS.
It has only been launched into orbit once. That was in 1990.
As of July 2014, the market cap for Geospace Technologies Corporation (GEOS) is $572,572,783.44.
It depends on the position of HST in orbit and where the information is being relayed to/from, but in general only a few seconds at its furthest point. HST is in a low-earth orbit to avoid the Van Allen belt, so its orbit is only a few hundred nautical miles high.
The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) is a space telescope that was carried into orbit in April 1990.
HST was transported into orbit aboard Space Shuttle Discovery (mission STS-31) in April 1990. It was scheduled to be orbited earlier, but the shutdown of the Shuttle program following the Challenger accident delayed its deployment, not to mention increasing its maintenance cost because it sat on the ground (about 1 million per day). Astronauts successfully deployed and boosted HST into its orbit altitude of 569nm.Though any of the Shuttles can perform an HST Servicing Mission, Shuttles Discovery and Endeavour are usually preferred due to their larger payload bays (we can put more stuff in it).To date, HST has been in orbit and providing science data for over 20 years.
In no atmosphere. The HST orbits in low-earth orbit at 569 km and considerably above the atmosphere.
