The Hubble Space Telescope Scientific Instruments
24th Aerospace Sciences Meeting, 1986The paper describes the status of the five Scientific Instruments (SI's) to be flown on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) which is planned to be launched by the Space Transportation System in the last half of 1986. Concentration is on the testing experience for each of the instruments both at the instrument level and in conjunction with the other ...

Control And Alignment Of The Hubble Space Telescope
SPIE Proceedings, 1986The optics within the Hubble Space Telescope consist essentially of a primary and secondary mirror. Measurements from three wavefront sensors are telemetered to the ground where a series of computations are made to determine whether the telescope is performing within specifications.

Highlights of the Hubble Space Telescope
1994In the three years since its deployment, the Hubble Space Telescope has been utilized for a broad range of astrophysical studies. Approximately 5000 targets have been observed, with the resulting data filling 500 Gbytes of the HST archives at the ST ScI, ST ECF, and CADC. Even with their much publicized spherical aberration, the HST optics have yielded

The Advantages of Using the Hubble Space Telescope
Space 2000, 2000There are many advantages of using the Hubble Space Telescope as the next century approaches. The uses, findings, discoveries, and history of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) show that HST should be used well after the ending mission date. The objectives and design of the HST are basic and understandable. The instrument changes over the past years have

The Hubble Space Telescope: Year One
1992The first year of in-orbit operations of the Hubble Space Telescope has produced a variety of exciting scientific discoveries, despite the fact that the primary mirror suffers from spherical aberration. The resulting image quality is considerably below the design specifications, and causes a loss of sensitivity of approximately 2.5 magnitudes ...
