The first space telescope sent in space in 1972 was?
It was the far-ultraviolet space telescope taken to the Moon by Apollo 16. It took about 200 photographs showing the stars. So much for the Moon Hoaxers who claim none of the Apollo photos showed stars! Interestingly enough, the Apollo 'scope looked at the stars in frequencies that had never been seen before, as far ultraviolet is absorbed by Earth's atmosphere before it can reach telescopes on the ground. The discoveries the Apollo 16 space telescope made were later verified by comparison with imagery from various' countries later space telescopes. In other words, Apollo 16 captured data no hoaxer could have created as it involved things that hadn't been discovered yet. So much for the idea that Apollo was a hoax!
