How do space shuttles get payload off Earth?

Pay load is the total weight of the instruments, passengers, crew, and life-support systems that a space shuttle carries or can carry. The usual payload capacity for the space shuttle is 22,700 kilograms, but it can be raised depending on the choice of launch arrangement. Pay loads get off the earth by being launched in to orbit with either two different booster stages. The space shuttle gets the payload of the earth by using fuel tanks. The payload is attached to the space shuttle and is carried onto it when going into space.

Why was the space shuttle program so important to the success of the hubble space telescope?

Many reasons. For one, the telescope was started and designed specifically with the space shuttle in mind. It was launched on a space shuttle, and only the space shuttle's ability to carry astronauts and capture satellites with the robotic arm made the correctional repairs possible. Several servicing missions by space shuttles have upgraded and replaced vital parts to extend the telescope's life and keep it in orbit. After the Columbia disaster, the space shuttle and telescope's futures were both in question. If the space shuttle never existed, we wouldn't have the Hubble space telescope either.

Which famous space telescope circles the earth every 90 minutes?

There are several space telescopes now in orbit, but the Hubble Space Telescope is the only one in a 90-minute orbit. This low orbit was selected so that it would remain reachable by the Space Shuttle. The original plan, when Hubble was launched, was that one of the later Shuttle missions would pick up the Hubble at the end of its service life and return it to Earth, possibly to be placed in the Smithsonian museum. Unfortunately, the Shuttle program is ending early, and with the last maintenance mission, the Hubble can remain in service for several more years. So there will be no way to retrieve Hubble and return it to Earth. It will probably be de-orbited and crashed into the ocean by about 2018. Fortunately, other more powerful space telescopes are being prepared for launch now, and some, like the Spitzer Space Telescope, are already in space.
