HST operations are controlled by the Space Telescope Science Institute on the Johns Hopkins campus in Columbia, MD. Observation time is requested and approved by STSI, and is given primarily to scientists who belong to the countries involved in HST's funding and construction.
Small amounts of time (donated by the STSI Director as part of his own discretionary use) has been allocated for amateur astronomers as well, though they still must present a proposal for consideration/scheduling like everyone else.
What else can I help you with?
Is HST still working?
No, the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) is currently experiencing technical difficulties after a problem with its payload computer. NASA is working to resolve the issue and bring HST back online.
When was the hst launched?
The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) was launched on April 24, 1990, aboard the Space Shuttle Discovery.
It's possible to rent time of hubble telescope?
Not rent per se, but civilians can request and be granted observation time, though it's very limited. Most HST observation time is granted in advance to Astrophysics and Astronomy teams based on submitted proposals, as well as their association with countries that helped build and maintain HST. However, the Space Telescope Science Institute (the unit that controls HST and its observations here in Maryland at Johns Hopkins) Director has 10% of "Director's Discretionary (DD) allocation time" for HST observations. The Director on occasion does grant use to civilians, though they must go through the same submission procedure as any scientist would, and any submission must clearly justify use of HST. Using it to observe women on the beach in Maui is not considered justifiable use. Besides, that's what submarine periscopes are for. You can read more about it at the link below.
Is the hubble telescope 100 inch?
HST's primary mirror is 3 meters, or 118.110 inches.
How long was the Hubble Telescope in orbit?
HST has been in continuous orbit since it was deployed in 1990.
Who could use Hubble telescope?
Though most HST observation time requests are from academics and other professional institutions, the HST director does occasionally offer "Director's time" for HST observation use by the public. Requests for use are highly screened regardless of the source, and must be relevant to HST's mission, as well as the exploration of space itself.
When was the HST created?
1975 - 1982 Was The Build Date Of The HST
What is the difference between the HST and other land telescopes?

Is gst or hst included in mileage reimbursement?
Is hst included in mileage reimbursement
What time in Hst at 6 pm est?
1 PM HST. 5 hours difference between East Coast & HST right now.
What time is 1300 CST in HST?
1300 CST (Central Standard Time) is 9:00 AM HST (Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time). CST is 10 hours ahead of HST. Therefore, to convert from CST to HST, you subtract 10 hours.
When was the hubbe speca telescopes HST first launchad into orbit?
The HST was only launched once, in 1990 .
