One of the best documentaries on KZbin..

[@williamhoward7121]

A very inspiring documentary about an equally inspiring telescope. All of the engineers and astronauts involved in creating Hubble and fixing it are to be commended for a great job. I am sure that the James Webb Space Telescope project management team learned a great deal from the challenges that faced Hubble. Additionally this entire repair process added greatly to our country's ability to do large space projects such as the international space station. Nothing was lost in this process and everything was gained in the end!

What a Legacy of discovery for Hubble! STILL working hard.

Story Musgrave is a true American Space Hero of the first order!

[@michaelripley4528]

Hubble gave us so Many stunning pictures💯JWST And its bigbrother Will give us Many other stunning pictures! Euclid telescope cover much much more sky and Can become very important - DANG HUBBLE is Amazing, sadly Hubble Will run out of life “soon” Hubble pictures are STUNNING❤️💙

[@haydendegrow945]

The HST is one of humanity's most important scientific achievements. today, I use its nebula photos as a screensaver on my laptop, and try to imagine what the universe really looks like. This documentary showed just what it took to make this possible

[@dakine420a]

Another amazing documentary. The brilliance of an engineering mind is pretty rad.

[@uzzipy]

inspirational documentary ❤ ✨

[@pr19580]

Excellent video on an amazing machine! You show a poster of the HST at 7:51 - do you know if it's available to buy anywhere?

[@SylvesterCarl]

This is nostalgic, LOL! I was in my twenties.

31:43: NICMOS wasn't installed in Hubble, until STS 82 in Feb 1997. This was at the time in 1990 the Goddard High Resolution Spectrograph (GHRS).

[@stephenrocks7004]

As scientist , I never believed that what we were told about “Huble” was the truth. The impossible fix that could never happen yet did. I think that perhaps it was the only reason to encourage funding for NASA at that time.

Why there is no details about the primary mirror made my kotak and it's perfect in diamentions

[@GeoCalifornian]

20:00 A tiny flaw in the test equipment has gone unnoticed… /Where was Metrology? 😮

[@taktsing4969]

nice

[@wdmfan]

lol, bug juice and mouse milk. 😂😂 They used to have sense of humor, back in the day.

[@kitchenerleslie6177]

My church leader touched me and told me that the Earth was five thousand years old, flat, and that Mary was a virgin.

[@michaelhband]

👍👍👍❤❤❤🚀🚀🚀

[@woody5109]

It’s an amazing unit, primarily because it was the first, not because it was good. It was failure at the start with endless repair missions to keep it up there. Ground based telescopes have better images today, I’m an astrophotographer and can come pretty close to the same quality images from my backyard. Times have changed and Hubble played her part, but now it’s over.

[@ljhmayangao2596]

But can you do Hubble's "Deep Field"?

[@Marvinfj32]

I doubt it.

[@rdubb77]

Uh, how do you correct for the atmosphere?

[@anwealde]

@@rdubb77 lots of quality frames & superior software

[@Brinta3]

@woody5109 “Endless repair missions” It was designed from the start to be serviced in space, and there have been only five repair missions. It’s still working 33 years later! That’s very impressive.
