The original total cost estimate for the Hubble Space Telescope started out at US$400 million. It eventually cost over $2.5 billion to construct. Overall, with repairs, upgrades and operating it, Hubble had cost US$10 billion as of 2010.
These figures were reported by NASA in 2012. (See the references in the related links.)
What else can I help you with?
How much does it cost to operate the Hubble?
The annual operating cost for the Hubble Space Telescope is approximately $100 million.
How much does the Hubble telescope weigh?
The Hubble Telescope weighs 24,500 pounds.
How much did the hubble telescop cost to make and launch?
The total cost for building and launching the Hubble Space Telescope was approximately $2.5 billion. This includes the development, construction, transportation, and launch costs.
Is the Hubble telescope bigger than the earth?
No, the Hubble Space Telescope is not bigger than the Earth. The Earth has a much larger diameter (approximately 12,742 kilometers) compared to the Hubble Space Telescope, which is about 13.2 meters long and 4.2 meters wide.
How much did the hubble telescope cost?
The total cost of the Hubble Space Telescope, including development, construction, and maintenance over its lifetime, is estimated to be around $10 billion. This includes the cost of the initial launch in 1990 and the subsequent servicing missions.
How much would it cost to build a telescope?
the hubble space telescope cost 1.5 million dollars

What is replacing Hubble space telescope?
Nothing will "replace" the Hubble Space Telescope. However, a couple of new space telescopes are already in space, and another much more powerful one, the Webb Space Telescope, is under construction and should be launched in 2014.
Is the Hubble telescope bigger than the earth?
No, the Hubble Space Telescope is not bigger than the Earth. The Earth has a much larger diameter (approximately 12,742 kilometers) compared to the Hubble Space Telescope, which is about 13.2 meters long and 4.2 meters wide.

How much did the launch of the Hubble Space Telescope cost?
From an original estimate of about $400 million, by the time of launch it had cost $2.2 billion and by today has probably cost twice that amount.
How much has the hubble telescope cost?
1.5 billion US-$ at the launch in 1990.
How far does the hubble telescope travel?
He doesnt travel.. The Hubble telescope is stationairy and only in space to bypass the atmosphere. The Hubble telescope maginfies so much, that if you are beneath the atmosphere, you get a blurry image. Like looking through a dirty window. So they shot it in space. Beyond the "dirty window".
How much did the SETI telescope cost?
They use many types of telescopes. You can probably pick up the cheaper ones for as little as $25,000. The Hubble Space Telescope cost $1,500,000,000 ($1.5 billion) just to build.
If the Hubble Space Telescope works so well why not make a much bigger one and get an even better picture of the universe?
Money, it all comes down to money. The Hubble telescope is a multimillion dollar thing, i think its total cost is in the billions. So imagine what a better one would cost! Plus, the Hubble telescope has been able to do everything we needed it to. So until it can't keep up, i think we will keep good old Mr Hubble.
