No, the biggest telescope in the world currently is the Large Binocular Telescope. But Hubble is the biggest spacetelescope.
The red shift of galaxies suggests that the universe is expanding in all directions. As the space-time volume between galaxies increases, they seem to move away in all directions and the wavelength of light received is "stretched" meaning a shift in frequency towards the red end of the spectrum. This forms part of Hubble's law included in Edwin Hubble's paper in 1929 Yes, but it could mean something else. How much energy does the light lose when climbing out of a gravity hole (a large star, for a large distance).
The Hubble telescope has expanded man's understanding of the universe in many ways. Here are a few: * helped astronomers determine the age of the universe much more accurately, * played a key role in discovering that a mysterious form of energy called dark energy is making the universe expand at a faster and faster rate, * detected the elements sodium, hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen in the atmosphere of a a large planet outside our solar system, * confirmed most galaxies have a black hole at their center, * proved that quasars, tremendous generators of light and other radiation which lie at the outer reaches of the universe, are located at the center of galaxies,
The Hubble Space Telescope, launched in 1990, uses a large hyperbolic mirror to take highly detailed astronomical photographs. Hubble's orbit outside Earth's atmosphere allows it to take extremely sharp images without distortion or light pollution.
There is no opposite for universe, but the opposite of a large area (macrocosm) would be a microcosm.
We cannot know for sure, but we're sure that the universe expanded faster than the speed of light. While it is physically impossible for any object to move through space faster than the speed of light (according to Einstein's theory of relativity), it is possible for space itself to expand faster than the speed of light since it is not an object, but the area in which all objects and laws of physics are contained. In fact, space is still expanding faster than the speed of light.
yes there are 2 large solar panels on the side of the Hubble space telescope.
Edwin Hubble did not discover any planets. He is most famous for demonstrating that the "spiral nebulae" were, in fact, other galaxies lying far outside the Milky Way, and for discovering the relationship between redshift (= recessional velocity) of galaxies and their distances.
Hubble's " proposal about the universe" is surprising considering his red shift work is claimed to be the basis of the expanding universe. Hubble's work on counting galaxies indicated a closed universe, not expanding. His view of the red shift is that it is a "hither to unrecognized principle of nature".see this excerpt below about Hubble."Hubble concluded that his observed log N(m) distribution showed a large departure from Euclidean geometry, provided that the effect of redshifts on the apparent magnitudes was calculated as if the redshifts were due to a real expansion. A different correction is required if no motion exists, the redshifts then being due to an unknown cause. Hubble believed that his count data gave a more reasonable result concerning spatial curvature if the redshift correction was made assuming no recession. To the very end of his writings he maintained this position, favouring (or at the very least keeping open) the model where no true expansionexists, and therefore that the redshift "represents a hitherto unrecognized principle of nature". This viewpoint is emphasized (a) in The Realm of the Nebulae, (b)in his reply (Hubble 1937a) to the criticisms of the 1936 papers by Eddington and by McVittie, and (c) in his 1937 Rhodes Lectures published as The Observational Approach to Cosmology (Hubble 1937b). It also persists in his last published scientific paper which is an account of his Darwin Lecture (Hubble 1953)."

He noticed that the light emitted from galaxies is 'red-shifted'. This means it is slightly redder than it should have been. This is due to the Doppler Effect. The Doppler Effect is when things are moving towards you the waves are closer together and when things are moving away from you the waves are further apart.
It is very close to the size of a city bus.

Disadvantages Harder to operate in space more expensive you can't get such a large telescope. it's harder to repair a Hubble telescope

It is believed that in the far, far future, a large part of the mass that is currently concentrated in galaxies will accumulate in the central black hole.
A force on a large mass will accelerate it less than the same force on a smaller mass.
