i have always enjoyed docus about space but with hubble its even more interesting . i only saw this channel in my feed now and its brill and in simple language explained and i subbed for sure . just a few years ago a telescope was programmed to come back and i thought they said it was hubble . when i checked around it says hubble will stay up there till 2030 so which 1 was made to come down i cant find any info .
Those images are old. Hubble is shut down till SpaceX can get a repair mission on the schedule and thw parts are made to replace the broken gyros and whatever else needs to be repaired. I don't think they can replace the mirror. I'm not sure if they can do a major overhaul and upgrade any computers and communications gear it has.
@@drmayeda1930HST has been offline a bit, but it is not shut down, and does not need a repair mission just to keep observing. A repair mission would be nice, but right now 3 of the gyros are working again, and HST can carry on with only one gyro in a less efficient manner.
the u.s. government has several hubble type telescopes but they are not pointed out into space they have them pointed at the earth so they can watch you.
It’s possible that the outer planets could be viewed using the Extremely Large Telescope when it’s completed, I’m not entirely sure if it’s possible or not depending on the ability of the ELT to actually point towards them. The ELT will rather unbelievably be able to gather about 250x more light than Hubble, it’s very hard to overstate how incredible this observatory will be. I highly recommend the Tom Scott video about it. To put a dedicated telescope in space for the outer planets… it’d be quite costly and eat into budgets for other projects that are probably more important right now.
I had some beautiful books on our solar system when I was a teenager, right after Voyager 2 saw Neptune. They were... formative. :) This video feels like catching up after all these years. Thank you Alex, from my heart.
@@Channeldyhb I can imagine! :) I had a poster of the far side of the moon, but it still took me time to get used to the thought that there was so much of the moon we couldn't see directly.
Yes beautiful. Those books were designed to push young children to have the same yearning scientists have. In fact I bet most scientists were just like you.
Thank you so much for highlighting the lack of "competition" between the Hubble, the Webb, and other space telescopes like the soon to be launched Grace. They aren't just different versions of the same thing, they're each invaluable because they do vastly different work.
Hubble took the Deep Field Image. Which is for me the most amazing picture we've ever taken. It still (will always) leaves me in awe and lost in the musings that come with knowing this Universe that we're made out of, is indeed a great mystery, and we are it looking back at itself, it's everything. Hubble changed the world in a massive way. It's a very important and amazing sensory tool that we, humanity, have created. I'll always feel very grateful to Hubble and it's engineers. ❤ That it's found new life and a new usefulness is if no surprise, it will serve us for many year to come, I'm sure.
My friend, if you have not seen it, make sure to check out some of the JWST deep field images. You can also compare Hubble deep field to the exact same jwst deep field image. I know that anyone with as much stoke for the Hubble deep field image as you have, almost certainly has seen the jwst deep field images as well. However, I could not pass up the chance to guarantee you another perspective altering experience, even if it doesn’t have the same novel emotional context as when you first saw Hubble deep field. In the unlikely case that you haven’t come across the jwst images before, please be sure to report back here with your thoughts after you check them out
Listen, a mission on Europa may sound cool, but there's an entire game dedicated to exactly why we shouldn't ever go down there on a submarine mission.
I think a study on the plumes of europa to see if any organisms get caught in the plumes and ejected, would be cool but probably really hard to detect something
I think that'd be a perfect place to start. Any point that ejects water to the surface might be over a black or white smoker, so they might be "hotspots" for lifeforms to congregate. So, may well get ejected from the geyser. It might not be many, as the pressures would likely filter out most organisms from the plume, but you might get some smaller lifeforms like Europan equivalents to bacteria.
@@pfunk_1535 I don't think so neither, but the way Elon just creates stuff to create stuff, I wouldn't put it past him that he'll have a Starship freighter variant
I've stumbled across this channel by chance and I'm quite happy I did. Thank you, Alex, for your great narration and vast passing on of knowledge. I've been watching the supercut playlist for about..... 7 hours now.
To me, HUBBLE will always be the "Father" of modern telescopes. Its images are unprecedented when you consider the images of what came before it. I understand JWST is used for different wavelengths but in comparison images, I'm honestly unimpressed with the difference to Hubble. Yes, there is more detail, but if I were to give a percentage of the images by telescopes before Hubble... I would say about a 95% definition and quality increase in Hubble images, for JWST I would say maybe a 10% increase at best....I think Hubble has spoilt us with its beautiful images through the years. Thank you Hubble!
I hope you know how much these videos mean to people around the world. Not only the content but your sympathetic way of presenting is heartwarming and exciting!
I used to be a "Pluto is a planet" kind of guy. Then, I realized just how many objects in the solar system would also be considered planets if pluto was one. There'd be over EIGHTY planets in our solar system. I'm sorry, but no.
Shoemaker-Levy was my introduction to astrophysics, thanks to my condensed matter physics grandfather. I got so many newspaper clips and discussions about how this adjusted Luis Alvarez's theories on dinosaur extinction due to the Yucatan impact (in not gonna try to spell the proper name!) Sadly, he passed this year, but seeing SL9 as a highlight of Hubble reminded me of going over the images frame by frame with him as we got then through dial up!
Now this is a video i am waiting for, it's gonna be one beautiful evening relaxing, viewing the video. Thank you so much for giving us a Premiere notification, Astrum, because your content is worth it for anybody, and i believe you are not even close to getting enough recognition for the work you do. You are very sadly, only one, of ONLY a handful of Channels who makes incredibly watch- or even listen-worthy videos, informative, based on evidence and facts, no clickbait, no misleading titles, straight to the point, all beautifully put together Professionally, just for us. So, or everything you do, please keep doing what you do, wether you are alone or a team... a massive thank you! For the people!
An interesting thought, but Mars's moons are teeny tiny little potato-shaped things, not even having the gravity to pull themselves into spheres. They're basically asteroids, and quite small ones at that. They could still be useful to future Mars colonists. I once read how to navigate on Mars's surface with a suitable calendar, an analog watch and the two moons. ;) I can't remember any of the details, but I think it may have been in one of Robert Zubrin's books; possibly either _The Case For Mars_ or _Mars Direct,_ but it could be another. I haven't read it since the 90s.
I am so glad to see someone still showing respect for Hubble. Ever since JWT was launched it seems like everyone goes out of their way to compare the two like a Porche compared to a Model T. Let's see if JWT lasts as long. Sadly, even you coo over JWT a bit. But you do explain that they are two entirely different instruments.
Hubble is a Milestone, first of its kind. It made generations longing for more to know, it is a gift that keeps on giving. JWST continues that mission, it lives up to its very high expectations, which is as beautiful. Many men and women put a good part of their lifes into making both possible. You better be happy !
Webb will absolutely not last anywhere near as long as Hubble. The only reason Hubble has lasted as long as it has is because of multiple servicing and upgrade missions to it by the shuttle. The shuttle no longer operates, so servicing is all over, sadly. But Webb will never see a servicing mission of any kind. It's just too far away.
I really like this video, makes me feel so tiny and meaningless compared to the vastness of the space. Damn, I want to be a space explorer. If I could trate the rest of my life for a year of space exploration, I wouldn't hesitate at all
You know you are not meaningless, your life has meaning as does all life. But you're different than all life on Earth. Koko the signing gorilla was merely miming what she was taught, but she did not understand what "Once upon a time" meant, but your typical 4 year old does and so do you. You understand abstract concepts. You are not a meat computer, there is too much evidence that shows your mind is immortal, what is the Solar System compared to that?
I don’t know why but Europa gives me the chills. Probably because it looks like a giant living/sentient object rather than a moon or a planet. I feel like it would have sensor arrays like the tendrils of the Egregore in stranger things
Hubble is obviously old, but has proven to be serviceable over the decades. Obviously the mirror size is fixed, but how much better could the sensors get before we hit a practical limit to its clarity and sensitivity?
i somewhere heard they really mostly corrected the lens to the intended standard. Not much more possible due to constructional limits. Its optical, after all.
@@kawafahra They fixed the lens back in the 90s, but I was thinking more about the digital camera sensors. I guess the mission is ending in 10 years, so they don't feel like upgrading it again.
The practical limit is set by the diameter of the mirror. This is called the diffraction limit, and there's a formula that calculates the best possible resolution based on mirror size and wavelength. If I remember correctly, Hubble's current cameras are already pretty close to that limit. Adding more pixels won't improve the image.
The limit is 1.22 lambda divided by D where the is the lens diameter and lambda is the wavelength of the electromagnetic radiation Cj Besos function J1
Hubble needs another service call. Repairs, upgrades. Hubble and Webb could synergize so well together with another maintenance visit to the elder 'scope it isn't even funny. So let's send a crew up there to overhaul Hubble and see what it can do with a little TLC!
Even after 20 years of watching pictures taken with hubble and other telescopes, I'm still amazed of how beautiful and high quality they are. Thank you hubble...thank you.
Probably the greatest scientific instrument of all time. Is there an adult human on earth today who hasn't seen multiple Hubble images? Is there anyone who hasn't felt a sense of awe when viewing them?
1 in 7 people don't get a meal every day. Millions of people draw dirty water from wells to drink. And you can't imagine anyone who hasn't seen multiple Hubble images? 🤨
Thank you for your excellent video of Hubble’s images of Solar System bodies. You packed in so much information and the images were incredibly beautiful. It also reminded me of how long I have been an amateur astronomer, I can’t believe that Shoemaker-Levy 9 was in 1994. I’m particularly interested in Europa, it would be fascinating to ‘taste’ the subsurface ocean for organic compounds like Cassini did with Enceladus, also to discover hydrothermal vents and even life beneath the ice. Hubble has given us unparalleled views of the cosmos, thanks for sharing them with us.
Gut, dass du in der ersten Minute bereits erklärt hast, das man hier sieht, was hubble über die jahre aufgenommen hat. Somit konnte ich gleich wieder abdrehen, da es nicht darum ging, was Hubble Nicht sehen sollte.
Das Team, das auf die Idee kam das Hubble Teleskop zu bauen sollte ein Nobelreis bekommen. Das Teleskop hat die Astronomie so weit voran gebracht wie kaum ein anderes Gerät. Hubble ist zu unserem "Guckloch" ins Weltall geworden.😊
When I was in 3rd grade there was a 1/6 scale replica model of the Hubble Telescope in the art room on display shortly before they launched the real one in space. I have friends whose parents worked on the project
Hope that in my lifetime, the standard model is updated and inconsistent theories are trashed and we can finally integrate electricity and plasma dynamics into what we are clearly now seeing as major players in the universe. Great video, that was fun.
Kip Thorne is a year younger than I am. I went to a Carnegie talk he gave on how to detect gravity waves, decades ago. I few years ago, he and his fellow workers actually succeeded.
I was 19yrs old when launched and remember it well, believe me it's just as amazing that it was over 30 yrs ago if a little depressing that it's gone this quick🤣👍
The way you've presented in this video and your clear and genuine enthusiastic delivery has just reinvigorated my childhood love of space and our solar system. ☺ I also have a tendency to anthropomorphise everything and your script now has me cheering for these heroes! I'm rooting for JWST to live far beyond its expected lifetime, much like old mate Hubble! ☺🛰🛰
I'm still trying to understand how Hubble is maintaining its LEO without ever having its thrusters replenished for over 8 years now. I'm missing something?
Hey, I think I can help here. Hubble does not have, nor has it ever had, thrusters. An over simplified explanation is this: if there were no particles in the vacuum of space, an object in orbit could continue orbiting indefinitely, as there would be no drag. Hubble was launched into low earth orbit, so it is essentially in the very extreme “upper atmosphere”. There is no boundary between what is atmosphere vs “space”, meaning that earths atmosphere just gets less and less dense as you travel away from the surface. To be more specific, the “exosphere” is the farthest region of our atmosphere. It is where diffuse light gas molecules are so lightly gravitationally bound to earth that radiation from the sun can overcome earth gravity causing them to escape. Gases are are so diffuse that they can travel hundreds of kilometers without collisions. Hubble orbits in the lower exosphere, so all of the collisions with hydrogen and helium over time cause Hubble to slowly lose velocity. As Hubble slows, the orbit descends more and more into the atmosphere, transferring more and more energy to the atmosphere, causing Hubble to slow down faster over time. I think the current predictions say that without intervention, Hubble will slow down enough to deorbit between 2030 and 2040 without intervention. You may have been thinking thrusters because some of the missions to service Hubble have also been able to “boost” it. This means the shuttle used spare thrust from its gas thrusters to speed Hubble up, effectively increasing its altitude, buying it more time in orbit. I think the most recent time Hubble got a boost was 2009. Other than a few boosts, Hubble has been slowing down since the instant it was in orbit. The only active control it has is pointing.
@@matthewjohns1758why leave such an unhelpful, rhetorical question for a response to someone asking a question? I mean, I can see that the answer is simply because you have no idea how to answer his question lol. Wtf do you think solar panels are doing to keep Hubble in orbit, and why do you think NASA has not thought about the fact that Hubble has solar panels when looking for economical solutions to keep Hubble from deorbiting between 2030-2040? Did they just forget to turn on the switch for “Sun-make-Hubble-go-burrrrr”?
thank-you. the Hubble is truly amazing telescope. Hubble was only to have a short life, but somehow has gone far beyond its life expectancy, so maybe will be same for Webb telescope.
I’m curious if Astrum took the time to add all of the key concepts covered in this video, or if it was auto generated? Either way, I’m glad that they’re available! For several videos, I’ve noticed the white dots along the timeline, I don’t have ads so I know it’s not ads, for a bit I couldn’t figure out what it was for! Now I know! Edit: OK, I’m going to be the bigger person and admit this… Key concepts (i) only for it to tell me it was auto generated by UA-cam! The more you know I guess!
The gravitational pull of another starsystem. After working hard to escape the gravity well of one star you creep up to the well's rim and find nothing but gravitywells stretching all the way to infinity.
I read somewhere that, if you could get to the deepest reaches of the Hubble deep field, which would be at the "edges" of the universe, the vastness of the actual distances between the stars and galaxies, you wouldn't see anything. That totally blew my mind!
I very often forget about the asteroid belt when thinking about the solar system. There must be immense amount of material between us rocky planets and the gas giants
i wonder how they were able to create a camera still working after all those years. When i buy a camera I am sure it ll breake 1 day after the warranty expired. Very impressing quality
Very good walk-through! Waiting on mine to come in. I greatly appreciate you saying the center distance for the bunks. Is that 8” all the way down the yak? I couldn’t get a direct answer from Native on that. Granted, they tried to help but never replied to any of my follow-up questions. Thanks for the video! 👍
Earth is really unlucky to not have its own rings. Imagine living on Saturn and looking up the sky to witness the rings stroke through the sky in a wonder that can't be described as anything but a cosmic masterpiece.
If we had rings, we wouldn't be able to have as many satellites since debris would be in the way. Debris may also prevent us from getting to the moon and beyond. Also, meteor showers that can cause mass extinctions can be semi common @_@. The plus side? Beauty, the ancients assuming they weren't obliterated would be able to determine the world is round much sooner, and scientific advancements would happen faster most likely.
One of the seminal astronomical pieces of equipment of my lifetime. And like many great inventions it can be used for many more things than was ever envisaged originally, and find things we could never have imagined.
Hubble is what got my love of space and science. Massive respect for the engineers and crews that have kept it going all these years
And it’s been in use past its estimated lifetime too, right?

We definitely should have a telescope dedicated to taking super detailed high res images of our own solar system.

1 in 7 people don't get a meal every day. Millions of people draw dirty water from wells to drink. And you can't imagine anyone who hasn't seen multiple Hubble images? 🤨

Space is too hauntingly beautiful, I just wanna float through space until I die
I’m surprised you didn’t mention jupiters lagrange points. It’s like the bodyguard for the whole solar system.
Thank you for your excellent video of Hubble’s images of Solar System bodies. You packed in so much information and the images were incredibly beautiful. It also reminded me of how long I have been an amateur astronomer, I can’t believe that Shoemaker-Levy 9 was in 1994. I’m particularly interested in Europa, it would be fascinating to ‘taste’ the subsurface ocean for organic compounds like Cassini did with Enceladus, also to discover hydrothermal vents and even life beneath the ice. Hubble has given us unparalleled views of the cosmos, thanks for sharing them with us.
Great video. Did the test using the moon as a mirror show success? You kind of left us hanging on that point.
Bedankt
It's hard to imagine the loneliness of an entire planet with not a single living organism.

Love your voice. Your content and narration are wonderful!
Computerstimme mit vielen Fehlern, vor allem am Ende😂
Gut, dass du in der ersten Minute bereits erklärt hast, das man hier sieht, was hubble über die jahre aufgenommen hat.
Somit konnte ich gleich wieder abdrehen, da es nicht darum ging, was Hubble Nicht sehen sollte.
JWST may hv gotten all the hype...but the images from Hubble Telescope will be for posterity !!!!
I could listen to you talk about space for hours….!
Das Team, das auf die Idee kam das Hubble Teleskop zu bauen sollte ein Nobelreis bekommen. Das Teleskop hat die Astronomie so weit voran gebracht wie kaum ein anderes Gerät. Hubble ist zu unserem "Guckloch" ins Weltall geworden.😊
Love you and the channel 😍 well done on 10yrs 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
Love the videos you make❤❤❤
When I was in 3rd grade there was a 1/6 scale replica model of the Hubble Telescope in the art room on display shortly before they launched the real one in space. I have friends whose parents worked on the project
Hope that in my lifetime, the standard model is updated and inconsistent theories are trashed and we can finally integrate electricity and plasma dynamics into what we are clearly now seeing as major players in the universe. Great video, that was fun.
Man, to think that Hubble is the same age as I am, that it has been around since I was a newborn. A strange feeling.
Also strange feeling can be if the Hubble is even older than you.
Kip Thorne is a year younger than I am. I went to a Carnegie talk he gave on how to detect gravity waves, decades ago. I few years ago, he and his fellow workers actually succeeded.
I was 19yrs old when launched and remember it well, believe me it's just as amazing that it was over 30 yrs ago if a little depressing that it's gone this quick🤣👍
Incredible stuff. Terrific video!
Gotta love how every time an ad plays it kills the subtitles for 5-10 seconds, causing you to rewind and then you get to enjoy even more ads.😢
This is a very good video! It’s rare to find quality like this. And rare to find narration actually done by a human (it was, wasn’t it?)
Possibly your finest video to date.
Nicely Done Really enjoyed it Thank you!
A 25 minute video? On the solar system?? This turned a pretty "meh" day into a great one!
It was just long enough to squeeze in Uranus
Actually
The way you've presented in this video and your clear and genuine enthusiastic delivery has just reinvigorated my childhood love of space and our solar system. ☺ I also have a tendency to anthropomorphise everything and your script now has me cheering for these heroes! I'm rooting for JWST to live far beyond its expected lifetime, much like old mate Hubble! ☺🛰🛰

Amazing! I wonder how many little or giant creatures could possibly be flourishing in any of these planets and or moons..
I'm still trying to understand how Hubble is maintaining its LEO without ever having its thrusters replenished for over 8 years now. I'm missing something?
Doesn’t it have solar panels?
Hubble’s altitude is much higher than the ISS and it’s a lot smaller, so it doesn’t need to boost it’s orbit because it doesn’t experience much drag
Hey, I think I can help here.
Hubble does not have, nor has it ever had, thrusters.
An over simplified explanation is this: if there were no particles in the vacuum of space, an object in orbit could continue orbiting indefinitely, as there would be no drag. Hubble was launched into low earth orbit, so it is essentially in the very extreme “upper atmosphere”. There is no boundary between what is atmosphere vs “space”, meaning that earths atmosphere just gets less and less dense as you travel away from the surface. To be more specific, the “exosphere” is the farthest region of our atmosphere. It is where diffuse light gas molecules are so lightly gravitationally bound to earth that radiation from the sun can overcome earth gravity causing them to escape. Gases are are so diffuse that they can travel hundreds of kilometers without collisions. Hubble orbits in the lower exosphere, so all of the collisions with hydrogen and helium over time cause Hubble to slowly lose velocity. As Hubble slows, the orbit descends more and more into the atmosphere, transferring more and more energy to the atmosphere, causing Hubble to slow down faster over time. I think the current predictions say that without intervention, Hubble will slow down enough to deorbit between 2030 and 2040 without intervention.
You may have been thinking thrusters because some of the missions to service Hubble have also been able to “boost” it. This means the shuttle used spare thrust from its gas thrusters to speed Hubble up, effectively increasing its altitude, buying it more time in orbit. I think the most recent time Hubble got a boost was 2009.
Other than a few boosts, Hubble has been slowing down since the instant it was in orbit.
The only active control it has is pointing.
@@matthewjohns1758why leave such an unhelpful, rhetorical question for a response to someone asking a question?
I mean, I can see that the answer is simply because you have no idea how to answer his question lol.
Wtf do you think solar panels are doing to keep Hubble in orbit, and why do you think NASA has not thought about the fact that Hubble has solar panels when looking for economical solutions to keep Hubble from deorbiting between 2030-2040? Did they just forget to turn on the switch for “Sun-make-Hubble-go-burrrrr”?
@@theboathaaa7654 Thank you for this clear and thorough explanation! ☺
thank-you. the Hubble is truly amazing telescope. Hubble was only to have a short life, but somehow has gone far beyond its life expectancy, so maybe will be same for Webb telescope.
Thanks for the lessons. I enjoy your work.
My body is ready. My brain isn't so sure lol
God I wish I was as enthusiastic about anything in my life as you are in astronomy.
Stop the blasphemous, idolatrous comment

I’m curious if Astrum took the time to add all of the key concepts covered in this video, or if it was auto generated?
Either way, I’m glad that they’re available! For several videos, I’ve noticed the white dots along the timeline, I don’t have ads so I know it’s not ads, for a bit I couldn’t figure out what it was for! Now I know!
Edit: OK, I’m going to be the bigger person and admit this… Key concepts (i) only for it to tell me it was auto generated by UA-cam!
The more you know I guess!
Pluto is a planet!
The gravitational pull of another starsystem. After working hard to escape the gravity well of one star you creep up to the well's rim and find nothing but gravitywells stretching all the way to infinity.
I appreciate your videos dude
I read somewhere that, if you could get to the deepest reaches of the Hubble deep field, which would be at the "edges" of the universe, the vastness of the actual distances between the stars and galaxies, you wouldn't see anything. That totally blew my mind!
I love it Alex.
Hubble will always have a special place in my heart, just because it went up on the same date as my birthday hehe
Haven't stopped by in over a year and your productions are still phenomenal
Your friend in florida
6:05 thats my birthday!
I very often forget about the asteroid belt when thinking about the solar system. There must be immense amount of material between us rocky planets and the gas giants
Hubble stopped working 25 minutes before lunch 😂😅
WOW! Ive never heard of Gonggong before! thank you for your amazing videos as always!
Amazing images and information presented with great skill and knowledge.
The view of Uranus was breathtaking.
i wonder how they were able to create a camera still working after all those years. When i buy a camera I am sure it ll breake 1 day after the warranty expired. Very impressing quality
Very good walk-through! Waiting on mine to come in. I greatly appreciate you saying the center distance for the bunks. Is that 8” all the way down the yak? I couldn’t get a direct answer from Native on that. Granted, they tried to help but never replied to any of my follow-up questions. Thanks for the video! 👍
I love this kind of information ❤ thank you for sharing this ❤
Hubble is the badass older brother to Webb. 😙
Amazing and so understandable. 👌👌
Eine phantastische Sendung
Thanks Alex!
Fascinating doc as always ! Space is a wonder!

Earth is really unlucky to not have its own rings.
Imagine living on Saturn and looking up the sky to witness the rings stroke through the sky in a wonder that can't be described as anything but a cosmic masterpiece.
If we had rings, we wouldn't be able to have as many satellites since debris would be in the way. Debris may also prevent us from getting to the moon and beyond. Also, meteor showers that can cause mass extinctions can be semi common @_@.
The plus side? Beauty, the ancients assuming they weren't obliterated would be able to determine the world is round much sooner, and scientific advancements would happen faster most likely.
One of the seminal astronomical pieces of equipment of my lifetime. And like many great inventions it can be used for many more things than was ever envisaged originally, and find things we could never have imagined.
Thank you, loved it.
Question!
Does Hubble have an AI Or Nasa or some space thingy else is controling Hubble from Earth?
I love how Hubble looks like it's wrapped in aluminum foil.
happy 34th birthday hubble
