The iconic orbiting observatory of optical astronomy.
The Hubble Space Telescope observes from orbit, free of the blurring and absorption caused by Earth's atmosphere. This gives it sharp, clear views across visible, ultraviolet, and near-infrared wavelengths.
Hubble is renowned for images that have become part of popular culture, including detailed views of nebulae and galaxies and its deep-field exposures, which reveal myriad distant galaxies in tiny patches of sky.
Hubble's observations have contributed to a wide range of discoveries about the age and expansion of the universe, galaxy evolution, and planetary science. The story of its launch and in-orbit servicing is covered under Space Missions.
How this connects across Asteria Star — scientific, cultural, and astrological links are kept separate.
