Edwin Hubble did not discover the Milky Way; rather, he is renowned for his contributions to our understanding of the universe's structure and the existence of galaxies beyond the Milky Way. In the 1920s, Hubble provided evidence that the Milky Way is just one of many galaxies in the universe, using observations of the Andromeda Nebula. His work fundamentally changed our understanding of the scale of the cosmos.

What year was the hubble space telescope luanched?
The HST was launched on April 24, 1990.
What did redshift tell Hubble about the universe?
The redshift was not "invented" by anyone. It is a natural phenomenon that has always been with us. It was the Austrian mathematician and physicist Christian Doppler who first described the effect in the year 1842. The idea was latched onto by astronomers who (eventually) applied it to observations of more and more distant galaxies. These observers found that by taking the colors of the observed light and shifting them up, the light looked "more normal" to the observers. It was then easy to deduce that the galactic light sources were receding, and the the speed of recession could be calculated based on their redshift. Links can be found below for more information.
Is the Milky way seen year-round in the dark night sky or does the sun get in the way in certain seasons?
The Milky Way can be seen in the night sky throughout the year. At any one point in time, at least part of the Milky Way will be visible in the night sky. The centre of the Milky Way can be best viewed from the southern hemisphere, and the outer arm (the Perseus Arm) is best seen from the northern hemisphere.
What year did the Hubble Space Telescope explore Neptune?
Hubble has never "explored" Neptune. It is a telescope in orbit round Earth and from Earth it has "imaged" Neptune. It has done this several times eg 1996 and 1998 (there may be more times!).
Compare and contrast ursa major and Milky Way?
Ursa Major and the Milky way both can be seen all year . However the Ursa major is a constellation while the Milky way is a galaxy. Also the Ursa major is in the milky way, and the milky way is just a galaxy that's in space.
What year was the astronomer Edwin Hubble born?
Edwin Hubble is a very important observational cosmologist in American history. Edwin Hubble was born in Marshfield, Missouri on November 20th in the year 1889.
Edwin Hubble found the galaxy in 1923 where did he found it?
In 1923, Edwin Hubble showed that the "spiral nebulae" that were presumed to be within our galaxy, the Milky Way, were actually other galaxies that lay far beyond our. The following year, he showed that the Milky Way was just one of many galaxies in the universe. Hubble's discovery, announced on January 1, 1925, fundamentally changed the view of the universe.
What year did Edwin hubble discover the big bang theory?
Actuall year is 1927, however it was actually discovered by Lemaître in 1927 but he did not have good evidence. << This shows what the Americans do..
what year did Edwin Hubble get his bachelor's degree?
Edwin Hubble received his bachelor's degree in 1910 from the University of Chicago. He initially studied physics and astronomy, laying the foundation for his future contributions to the field of cosmology.
What year did Edwin klebs discover diphtheria bacillus?
1882
In which year was Hubble's Law formulated?
1929
What year did hubble launch?
April, 1990
What year did the hubble spacecraft orbit neptune?
Never. The Hubble telescope has never left orbit around Earth.
When was the Andromeda Galaxy discovered?
The Andromeda Galaxy is one of the few galaxies that is observable with the naked eye. Because of this, it cannot be said to be "discovered" as it has obviously been viewed by "man" since the earliest times.
What was the the year hubble orbited around neptune?
Never happened.
