Is Hubble telescope bigger than earth?
No. The Hubble Space Telescope was built on Earth and launched into space. It is about the size of a bus.
Is the Hubble telescope bigger than the moon?
The Hubble Space Telescope is not as big as the moon. It is as big as the space shuttle cargo bay.
How many people built Hubble space telescope?
More than 10,000 people made the Hubble Telescope. It took 20 years to make the Hubble Telescope.
Why Hubble Telescope take pictures better than telescopes in observation?
Since the Hubble Telescope is in space, it avoids interference from the atmosphere.
What is the difference between the hubble and Kepler telescope?
"Kepler" is actually an observatory, rather than a telescope. It does, however, operate in space. "Hubble" is a telescope, in the true sense of the word and, again, it operates in space.
What can the the hubble space telescope do?
The Hubble telescope can take extremely detailed pictures using mirrors in space.
How has the Hubble space telescope helped NASA?
Most large earth bound telescopes cannot see clear images of objects in deep space. Our. atmosphere distorts the pictures with shimmery air. The HST (Hubble Space Telescope) has the advantage because it is in space and has almost no distortion. It can see much farther than regular telescopes.
How close can the hubble space telescope get to the sun?
Never more than about 350 miles closer than you can be.That's about 0.0000038 of the total distance from you to the sun.And for about half of the time, the HST is farther from the sun than you are.
What telescope can now deliver images ten times sharper than the Hubble Space Telescope?
The (GMT) Giant Magellan Telescope .
Why did they build the hubble space telescope?
On our ability to view space is limited because of all the particles in our atmosphere that filter or refract light as it passes from space to us. The Hubble Space telescope was built to be an orbiting Telescope that was out of our atmosphere. It was used to probe the earliest reaches of the universe. The Hubble is roughly 370 miles from the Earth's surface. The newest space telescope created by NASA is the James Webb Space Telescope. That will be far more powerful than Hubble and will be in orbit around the sun 1 Million miles from Earth.
Most powerful telescope in the world?
it should be the hubble space telescope because it can see 10 times better than a normal telescope
What is the Difference between hubble space telescope and iternational space station?
There are a number of differences. First, they are in different orbits; the Hubble is higher than the ISS. The ISS is a lot bigger. Probably the most important difference is that the Hubble has a big telescope but no people, while the ISS has people but no big telescope.
