The telescope is named after the astronomer Edwin Hubble. Hubble's orbit outside the distortion of Earth's atmosphere allows it to take extremely high-resolution images with negligible background light. Hubble has recorded some of the most detailed visible-light images ever, allowing a deep view into space and time.ubble is the only telescope designed to be serviced in space by astronauts. After launch by Space Shuttle Discovery in 1990, four subsequent Space Shuttle missions repaired, upgraded, and replaced systems on the telescope.
Date: May 11-24, 2009. The Hubble Space Telescope was reborn with Servicing Mission 4 (SM4), the fifth and final servicing of the orbiting observatory. During SM4, two new scientific instruments were installed â the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS) and Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3).TS-125 was Grunsfeld's fourth mission and his third trip to the Hubble Space Telescope. Grunsfeld had flown three times previously, STS-67 in 1995, and Hubble missions STS-81 in 1997, and STS-103 in 1999.
