Edwin Hubble was a American astronomer, the Hubble telescope is named after him.
It was named after the famous scientist Edwin P. Hubble (1889-1953) because he was the one who made the discovery that our universe was expanding. The space telescope designed to replace Hubble around 2018 is named for the late NASA administrator James Webb (1906-1992).
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.
Hubble was launched 24 April 1990, at 8:33:51 EDT and achieved orbit that day. As of 24 February 2014, Hubble has been orbiting 23 years 10 months 1 day.
