It was in April 1990, that this space telescope was sent into orbit to focus on far space. Hubble is the first space telescope and also one of the largest one, sent into space by the Space Shuttle Discovery. Since then, Hubble was always in the space news, sending astonishing figures of space to the researchers and scientists on Earth.
Though enduring, the Hubble had to go for some servicing. And after every time of servicing, it has enhanced its working performance. Till now it underwent four space-servicing by the astronauts. The fifth service mission was canceled because of theColumbia disaster.
Till now it has taken some astonishing pictures like Eagle Nebula, Supernovas, the collision of comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 with Jupiter, etc. thus helping to observe many discoveries and breakthroughs in astrophysics. Hubble was also successful in studying about the expansion in space.
This telescope is orbiting Earth since 18 years without any permanent damages of its instruments. It restarted working in spite of some damages, and is sending pictures of space to earth.
