rataru101 asked: I know the Hubble telescope can produce microscopic pictures of Mars, but what about a telescope on earth? I don’t mean a $100 walmart telescope either, but the million dollar NASA ones.
If so, please try to provide the closest pictures you can find that used and state they used an Earth based telescope.
P.S. I say they can, and a friend says no way. I don’t much mind either way but I’m rather curious now…

Nazdaran asked:
Why is the Hubble Space Telescope considered to give the best images in the visible when telescopes such as the Keck 10 m telescopes have almost five times larger mirrors?.

Somebody. asked: If the Hubble Space Telescope can see trillions of miles to other galaxies then why do we need a satellite to go past Pluto and such?? Wouldn’t we just look everywhere with the Telescope???
I need to read up on it !!
Maybe it’s located so far away that we send other satellites to look in our solar system??
Thanks for the link, I’ll be educating myself !!

bentoro2001 asked:
Would whatever entity that controls the Hubble Space Telescope be willing to turn over control of it after it’s decommissioned? Could it be turned into a simpler, cheaper to run space telescope? Or recommissioned for other astronomical work, like looking for near earth objects or something?

Scientific Utopia asked:
The Hubble Space Telescope’s mirrors are enclosed inside a tube but the future James Webb space telescope will not be! How will that affect its performance because light will hit the main and secondary mirrors from all directions?
