why is the hubble telescope not in our atmosphere
The Hubble Space Telescope's launch in 1990 sped humanity to one of its greatest advances in the journey to understand the universe. Hubble is a telescope that orbits Earth.Its position above the atmosphere, which distorts and blocks the light that reaches our planet, gives it a view of the universe that typically far surpasses that of ground-based telescopes.ASA plans to operate Hubble at least until 2020 in order to allow 1 year of overlap of science operations with the James Webb Space Telescope. Hubble is one of NASA's most successful and long-lasting science missions.
