Hubble Telescope Unveils the Universe

If you need the most awesome pictures of the Universe and space, then the photographs taken by the Hubble Telescope prove to be the best references. Clear images of the planets, stars, galaxies and constellations have already been produced by the Hubble Space Telescope throughout the years.

Such amazingly vivid pictures are major data and evidences in themselves; they are very useful in unraveling the many secrets and baffling truth, as well as the mysteries that shrouded our Universe for the longest time.

Galaxies and other space entities that were barely visible and even blurred in previous photographs are now better studied and closely scrutinized because of Hubble’s excellent quality pictures.

Whereas before, when needed to measure the distance between stars prove to be a very difficult task even with the use of the most powerful earth-based astronomical telescope, it has now become easier to accomplish with the use of the Hubble Space Telescope. And such measurements are very precise that the telescope is now regarded as an indispensable device of modern astronomy.

Indeed, this space telescope is not a great tool in major astronomical applications and has become a key in unlocking many queries in astronomy that for a long time remained unsolved (until now), and continues to be one.

Here is a video I got from youtube on the many discoveries of the Hubble Telescope:
