Definition of hubble space telescope hubble's constant hubble edwin powell in English English dictionary: Hubble
Hubble Space Telescope: powerful telescope that was launched into space by the United States in 1990 and transmits magnified photographs of galaxies and objects in space
Hubble Space Telescope: Most sophisticated optical observatory ever placed into orbit around Earth. Because it is above Earth's obscuring atmosphere, it can obtain images much brighter, clearer, and more detailed than ground-based telescopes can. Named for Edwin Hubble, it was built under NASA supervision and deployed on a 1990 space-shuttle mission. The reflector telescope's mirror optics gather light from celestial objects and direct it to an array of cameras and spectrographs (see spectroscopy). A defect in the primary mirror initially caused it to produce fuzzy images; in 1993 another shuttle mission corrected this and other problems. Subsequent missions to the HST have been for maintenance, repairs, and instrument upgrades
