28 Years of the Hubble Space Telescope


Noted at This Day in Aviation.

As well as being the main part of completely freekin' revolutionizing our view of the whole damn universe, this is one of the finest examples of our tax money being well-spent.

Also noted: the Hubble has been in space almost exactly half of my lifetime.  That likely doesn't affect your world, I know, but it does put things into a slightly different perspective for me.



Next up: Webb Space Telescope.  Exciting times!

ps: a nice article on the Hubble from UPI.
