Neil deGrasse Tyson celebrates the 30th anniversary of the Hubble Space Telescope launch with comic co-host Chuck Nice and Jennifer Wiseman, astrophysicist and senior project scientist for the Hubble Space Telescope. You'll learn why Hubble offers a different perspective being above Earth's atmosphere compared to ground-based telescopes. Find out why the size of the space shuttle dictated the size of Hubble itself. You'll learn how the Earth can sometimes be "in the way" when Hubble is trying to glimpse the cosmos. Lastly, discover more about Hubble's extended lifespan. Usually space telescopes are meant to last 3-5 years so you'll find out how Hubble has been able to stay in orbit for 30! All that, plus, we reminisce on the beautiful imagery we’ve received from Hubble.
