Who was the astronomer that discovered the universe was expanding?

Edwin HubbleAnswer2:Hubble did not believe the universe is expanding. The universe is not expanding like the big bang, it is excited like an atom. The electrons jump to a higher level and lower their speed. The lower speed is a lower energy state, the max energy is when v=c.Hubble;s relationship v=HD indicates the distance D from the max energy state, where v = c.Hubble's Constant is dR/Rdt =c/R =H = 300M/150TT = 2E-18 m/s x31E21 = 62km/s/Megaparsec.


What is the farthest distance from the planet a human ever reached?

The farthest distance a human has ever reached from Earth is to the Moon, which is approximately 238,900 miles (384,400 kilometers) away. This was achieved during the Apollo missions conducted by NASA in the late 1960s and early 1970s.


What is NASA' most famous space telescope?

The Hubble Space Telescope is the most famous and the best working EVER MADE!


Did it ever snow in Philadelphia in May?

Yes, but no accumulation. Just observed falling.


How did Hubble make the universe larger?

He didn't make it any larger than it already was, he only theorised that it was larger than previously thought. It was a more powerful telescope than any made so far & was in space so clouds wouldn't obscure the images. It could see further into the distance than ever before. Light takes such a long time to travel from one end of the universe to the other that you can literally see into the past. People used to think the Milky Way galaxy was the whole universe until they could galaxies further out & until they found out the universe has been continuously expanding ever since the creation of the universe.

What is the most beautiful galaxy?

In my humble opinion, I would have to say the Sombrero Galaxy (M104). Out of the top ten most beautiful photos ever taken by the Hubble Space Telescope, the Sombrero Galaxy was rated number one.


Why is the Hubble Space Telesope helpful to astronomy?

The Hubble Space Telescope is the greatest telescope ever built. It's important because it takes pictures far out into the galaxy so astronomers can study them. BTW I want to be an astronomer.

What is the highest resolution image ever captured by the Hubble Telescope?

Ah, the Hubble Telescope captures wonderfully detailed images with incredible resolution. And you know, knowing the actual numbers can be like music–heard regular ages don’t hug monkeys, after all. Remember to appreciate the beauty of each pixel when you gaze upon those starry masterpieces! Stay relaxed and happy out there.


Did Edwin Hubble ever invent anything else than the Hubble telescope?

Edwin Hubble did not invent the Hubble Space telescope (HST).Edwin Hubble had been dead for forth years before HST was operational.HST is named after him. He was an astronomer.(See related links.)If anything can be said to be invented by Hubble, it is to be found in a few ideas that came out of a few discoveries he made such as the existence of the Universe.Only at the turn of the century with the construction of gigantic telescopes of almost a meter in diameter was it possible to distinguish the blobs known as nebulae as being outside of our galaxy. In the 1920s Hubble's observations confirmed the existence of other galaxies in the universe outside of our own galaxy, an idea that existed, but was controversial and lacked evidence earlier. (Earlier, the universe was thought to be infinite, but mostly empty except for our own little neighborhood of a few billion stars in the Milky Way. As always, we were the center of the Universe.)In the next years, Hubble expanded this with data from others to quantify the observation that the Universe was expanding. (Now called Hubble's Law.) This led, of course, to the first data supporting the Big Bang theory suggested in by Georges Lemaître in 1927.

What was the name of the first galaxy ever made?

a telescopeIn 1925, Edwin Hubble discover cepheid variable(s) in what we now call the Andromeda Galaxy. From those he could tell that the group of stars was too far away to be part of the Milky Way. It was the first proof that other galaxies exist.


Is the hubble telescope still in operations today in 2007?

Yes, and better than ever. Google "Hubble Ultra Deep Field" for some of the most amazing pictures you will ever see. Thousands upon thousands of galaxies.
