Week of March 12th

| What you are looking at is the Sombrero Galaxy - shown in infrared radiation - this is one of my favorite galaxies! What type of galaxy is this? First you have to know how galaxies are classified - stay tuned! | | | Par |

The Amazing Hubble!
 |
| The Hubble Space Telescope was launched from the Space Shuttle in 1990! It has been orbiting the Earth, gathering data, for 22 years! Discoveries, made by Hubble, have revolutionized Modern Astronomy! |

Question: Why has the Hubble Space Telescope been able to tell us so much about objects in space?
Some of my favorites from the Hubble Gallery!

DeleteUranus is a very dark, wet, cold, scary place
ReplyDeleteThe hubble has been able to give us and show us so much information from space, because it has been orbiting the Earth for 22 years. Because it has been orbiting for so long it can gain technology and information, just like us. The longer we listen and work the more we learn about whats around us.
ReplyDeleteuranus is gassy
ReplyDeletelove edward
No one wants to explore Uranus. Just stop asking.
ReplyDeletethe hubble space telescope has told us a lot about diferent stars and other galaxys.we have been able to learn more about supernovas to
ReplyDeleteUranus is full of gas and it sometimes comes out

ReplyDeletedoes uranus have ASS-teroids surrounding it?
no women have ever been to uranus ...but men are all over it
The world will end, when Uranus blows.
ReplyDeleteThe Hubble Space Telescope is able to tell us so much about objects in space because it is orbiting earth and its position above the atmosphere gives it a view of the universe that most ground telescopes don't see.
ReplyDeleteThe Hubble Space Telescope has been able to tell us so much of the Universe because the Hubble is above the atmosphere, in space where there is no pollution, therefore giving us clearer images of the Universe.
ReplyDeleteno woman wants to explore Uranus . apparently its a very dark and very wet place .
ReplyDeleteThe Hubble Space Telescope has been able to give us alot of information about the Universe because it has been out in Space for a long time and has been gaining more technology.
ReplyDeleteThe Sombrero Galaxy is a Spiral Galaxy
ReplyDeleteThe Hubble Space Telescope been able to tell us so much about objects in space because it has been up in space for a long time now. It uses different kinds of cameras to look at things in space. It uses a couple of different cameras and among these is an infrared camera. It helps find objects that are covered by dust.
