Place Brussels sprouts on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Lay them flat, cut side down. Drizzle with oil, seasonings and fresh thyme, then roast. In my convection oven it takes about 18 minutes.
The Hubble Space Telescope's launch in 1990 sped humanity to one of its greatest advances in the journey to understand the universe. Hubble is a telescope that orbits Earth.Its position above the atmosphere, which distorts and blocks the light that reaches our planet, gives it a view of the universe that typically far surpasses that of ground-based telescopes.ASA plans to operate Hubble at least until 2020 in order to allow 1 year of overlap of science operations with the James Webb Space Telescope. Hubble is one of NASA's most successful and long-lasting science missions.
The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) is the most famous-and probably most successful-space observatory ever flown. The 11 tonne telescope was placed into a 570 km high orbit around Earth by the Space Shuttle in April 1990. Circling our planet every 96 minutes, the HST has so far travelled some 5 billion km. Hubble has sent back a huge amount of scientific data and incredibly detailed images of every type of object in the sky. By autumn 2009, it had made nearly 900,000 observations and snapped over 570,000 images of more than 29,000 objects.
