The Extraordinary Hubble Space Telescope

How did the Hubble Space Telescope revolutionise astronomy and surpass all expectations?

DCODE how it has guaranteed new discoveries about the universe, in this fascinating 2016 series - Space’s Deepest Secrets.

Most of the wallpapers that I have used in my computer or phone over the years are Hubble images. The universe is beautiful. Thanks Hubble.

I love it when people talk anout space instead of politics.

Amazing how refreshingly transparent and BRUTALLY HONEST these folks were....

My god.. I can feel so much passion here, it almost bring me out tears.

My grandfather was an engineer helping in the construction of this giant space telescope. It’s one of his greatest accomplishments!

So Hubble was born with a short-sightedness disease fixed with pair of four glasses ! 😁

Still a big a achievement.
💪👍

Amazing, just amazing.
When the corrected images came on the screen, it was just so surreal.

I almost had tears, looking and hearing the reactions.


We humans are truly amazing.

If Hubble can see amazing and spectacular images like this back in time, imagine what james webb telescope can see. Damn i cant wait!

[fabianalfonsoooo]

now we will wait for James Webb Telescope

Kinda crazy how Drake gets like 200 million views but like the answer to life and exploring science is ignored.

There was everyone when you did a mistake but may be there was no one when you settle your mistake and give us a new era.
Charlie pellerin you did a great job sir ....
Whole human civilization salute you sir ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤

This should be taught in Science classes - very inspiring even in the failure aspect, and the fix was
innovative, the installation in Space miraculous. And it allows us to peer at the Universe!

US is a rather young country, yet it has such an amazing history. I’m from Iran and I’m very glad to be a part of the academic community in US ♥️

Moral-
Don’t let anyone say you anything about your silly mistakes
Just give them his example

So amazing how far technology and science has come! So fascinating 😍

I love this, I am so happy Hubble was corrected. I can’t imagine growing up without those spectacular images of the trillions of galaxies in deep space. I can’t wait for the new generations to grow up with ultra high def resolution images of even crazier, farther galaxies and black holes and star births!!

[eigshaji]

I still cant believe that the stars im seeing now were the stars which are years and years before.

[mrrobot_]

this is so amazing how small we are and how big the world is i wish i were born thousands of years later so i could see more of it

[bibiayube]

I feel sorry for anyone who can't appreciate the magnificent beauty of these images that we are fortunate to see, the volume of hard work by so many people, thank you all.

Seeing is believing... growing up on an Air Force base in Nor Cal in 1966, all I ever wanted to be was an astronaut. This makes me still want to learn everything possible about space and I'm 59 yrs old. Once a kid always a kid.
