Space Shuttles Discovery and Atlantis were most often used for HST Servicing Missions, due to their larger cargo bays.
The space shuttle mission that put the Hubble Space Telescope in space was STS-31, which launched on April 24, 1990. The Hubble Space Telescope has provided invaluable insights into the universe and revolutionized our understanding of space.
The space shuttle Discovery launched the Hubble Telescope into space.
The Hubble Space Telescope or HST was launched aboard the space shuttle Dscovery during mission STS-31 on the 24th of April 1990.
The Hubble Space Telescope was flown into space aboard the Space Shuttle Discovery, mission STS-31, on April 24, 1990. On the subsequent servicing mission, in December, 1993, flaws in the original optics were corrected.
The Hubble Space Telescope was carried as cargo aboard a Space Shuttle mission in April of 1990.
The Hubble Space Telescope was launched into orbit by NASA's space shuttle Discovery (mission STS-31) on April 24, 1990.
Yes, the Hubble Space Telescope has been repaired several times since its launch in 1990. The last servicing mission was in 2009.
The 11 May 2009 space mission was the launch of the Space Shuttle Atlantis on the STS-125 mission to repair and upgrade the Hubble Space Telescope. The mission involved five spacewalks to install new instruments and make repairs to extend the telescope's operational lifespan.

The Hubble Space Telescope was launched into orbit aboard NASA's space shuttle Discovery (mission STS-31) on April 24, 1990.The Hubble Space Telescope was originally meant to be launched in 1986, but the explosion of the space shuttle Challenger delayed the launch until April 24th 1990.The Hubble telescope is now seen as one of the most versatile telescopes in space. After it was launched in 1990, astronomers had a chance to change and improve the telescope through missions by astronauts aboard the Space Shuttle.
After several years in construction, the Hubble Space Telescope was placed in orbit during a Space Shuttle mission in April, 1990.
