The Hubble telescope is located outside our atmosphere and is orbiting around the Earth at 593 km above sea level with
an orbital period of about 96 to 97 minutes at a speed of 28,000 km/h.
Its name is in honor of astronomer Edwin Hubble, it was placed in orbit on April 24, 1990. It weighs about 11000 kg in a cylindrical form with a 13,2 m length and a diameter of 4,2 m. This telescope can obtain images of the cosmos at an 0,1 arc second of resolution.
