The mysteries hidden in the corners of the universe are far more interesting than anyone could possibly fathom. Astronomers discover new mysteries and solve them in ways that are as perplexing as they are enjoyable with each passing day and month. Sometimes astronomers discover things in locations where they had the least expectation of finding them. That’s exactly what happened when a group of astronomers set out to find a simple sample of faraway galaxies. The Hubble Space Telescope found something hidden in the cosmos. What is this recent discovery, and how will it benefit the JWST? In today’s video, we’ll look at how the Hubble Space Telescope came into contact with something fascinating that will shock you!
Since its inception in 1990, the Hubble Space Telescope has dazzled the world with views of space and a better knowledge of how the cosmos works. Despite its age and small size, the Hubble Space Telescope remains one of the greatest telescopes in the world. In comparison to the massive 8-10m telescopes erected on the ground, with even larger ones planned in the future, the 2.4m Hubble mirror is rather standard for modern research telescopes, with optics reaching their third decade of usage. However, it routinely outperforms many of the most advanced ground-based telescopes and is still regarded as the pinnacle of optical and ultraviolet astronomy, with demand for its utilization in research far outstripping available observing time each year.
