Eye in the sky...
Noelito Flow by Hubble
The Hubble space telescope marks the 25th anniversary of its launch into orbit today and the start of its many contributions toward a better understanding of the universe.
Hubble, which is considered one of the most important scientific instruments ever developed, got off to a rocky start.
In fact, it was labeled a failure in its early years.
It finally took astronauts to catch up with the orbiting telescope and space walks to repair it.
In the years since, Hubble has been regarded as a national treasure, providing valuable new insights about the universe.
