On April 24, 1990, the Space Shuttle Discovery launched the Hubble Space Telescope into low Earth orbit.

After some initial technical problems, it began providing images of our universe, the likes of which we’ve never seen before. 

Even though larger, better telescopes have been sent to space for over 30 years, the Hubble has remained one of the most important instruments available to astronomers. 

Learn more about the Hubble Space Telescope, why it was created and what it has accomplished on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
