Hubble Telescope Deep space

From its low orbit just 600 km (373 mi) above Earth's surface, the Hubble Space Telescope is able to observe the universe with incredible clarity. Free from the atmosphere's turbulent air that blurs incoming light and absorbs infrared and ultraviolet wavelengths, Hubble has taken over 400,000 observations and provided data for thousands of scientific papers.
