Who is the hubble telescopes was launched from space shuttle discovery?
The Hubble Space Telescope was launched from the space shuttle Discovery on April 24, 1990. The mission was designated STS-31.
Why can only international telescopes operate in space?
That is not the case. While countries may share the cost of launching a telescope into space (and share the time on it), individual countries have launched their own telescopes - eg Hubble is not international, it belongs to NASA/US.
Is the telescope manned?
Terrestrial telescopes are generally manned, while space telescopes are unmanned. However, to a greater and greater extent, the people doing the observing are not the people actually manning the telescopes; the observations are done remotely from other universities around the world. The various space telescopes, such as the Hubble, the Kepler, or the Spitzer, or the soon-to-be-launched Webb, are remotely controlled in the same manner that everything is controlled these days; remotely, via computer.
Why would some telescopes need to be in space and not on the surface of Earth?

What are some names of a space exploration?
Robot space probes and telescopes
How are telescopes used in astronomy?
Telescopes are used to see things that are far away from earth. Using telescopes we can see things that are millions of miles away. Most of the telescopes are on Earth but some of them are in space such as the Hubble Space Telescope.
Are space telescopes manned or unmanned satellites?
All space telescopes are unmanned - unless you want to count the small telescopes on the Shuttle or IIS as space telescopes.
Why do you need to put some telescopes in space?
Telescopes on Earth have to look through the atmosphere (air) which distorts the image. Telescopes in space dont have to look through the atmosphere and so the image is a lot clearer.
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.
What have telescopes discovered and found out?
Telescopes have helped discover many things in space that are not visible such as some of the outer planets of our solar system.
What are some Types of Space Telescopes?
Gamma, X-ray, Optical, and Radio
Are there telescopes in space?
hubble space station
