Science sent the Hubble telescope out into space, so it could capture light and the absence thereof, from the very beginning of time. And the telescope really did that. So now we know that there was once absolutely nothing, such a perfect nothing that there wasn't even nothing or once. Kurt Vonnegut

Every field of astrophysics - whether it's our local neighborhood of planets, nearby stars and their attendant planets, galaxies, clusters of galaxies, out to the edge of the universe - every field has questions that are awaiting the power of Hubble. Heidi Hammel

Power Edge Field Stars Every Universe Local Our Neighborhood Out Attendant Hubble Questions Whether Galaxies Clusters Planets Awaiting Nearby

When Hubble was launched, it became clear very shortly thereafter that there was a problem with the optics.The mirror was not quite the right shape. And the one program that I had really been looking forward to doing with Hubble was studying outer planets in our solar system, the planets Uranus and Neptune. Heidi Hammel

Problem Solar Mirror Looking Our Solar System System Neptune Outer Shape Had Clear Studying Looking Forward Became Doing Been Hubble Very Quite Really Planets Forward Thereafter Right Program

The Hubble Telescope can see the farthest galaxies. The Webb Telescope will see the farthest stars. Heidi Hammel

Because of Hubble and other telescopes, we've now discovered that there are probably planets around every star, or virtually every star. There are solar systems around most stars. And the fact that we're here on a planet, Earth, means that it's likely there's lots of other Earths out there. John M. Grunsfeld

Solar Stars Every Other Virtually Earth Out Systems Fact Most Likely Because Around Discovered Hubble Lots Planet Planet Earth Planets Means Star Now Here

When I first went to Hubble, as an astronomer and as a scientist, it was a dream come true. And as an astronaut, the Hubble missions are premiere missions because Hubble is so important to science, so important to humanity, that it's just a very special event. But as an astronomer, it was sort of the holy grail of missions. John M. Grunsfeld

Ironically, it is only when disaster strikes that the shuttle makes the headlines. Its routine flights attracted less media interest than unmanned probes to the planets or the images from the Hubble Telescope. The fate of Columbia (like that of Challenger in 1986) reminded us that space is still a hazardous environment. Martin Rees

Fate Space Strikes Telescope Only Hazardous Columbia Environment Reminded Headlines Like Disaster Attracted Makes Still Hubble Than Ironically Interest Us Planets Less Flights Media Challenger Routine Images Shuttle

A Hubble Space Telescope photograph of the universe evokes far more awe for creation than light streaming through a stained glass window in a cathedral. Michael Shermer
