Hubble Telescope: Hubble, the largest and most versatile Space Telescope: Hubble, the most versatile and largest Space Telescope was initiated in April 1990. This space shuttle was named after Edwin Bubble, American astronomer.

The Hubble Space Telescope is well-known as a public relations boon as well as a vital research tool for astronomy.

Hubble was scheduled to be launched in 1983 but this got delayed due to technical problems, Challenger disaster and budget problems.
