Based on the text, pick 3-4 interesting facts about the Hubble Telescope and
write them in your notebook. Share them with a relative or friend.
2. Part A: Venn diagrams help us to visually see the difference and similarities
between two things. Create a Venn diagram to compare visually between the
Hubble telescope and telescopes on Earth.
3. Part B: Based on the Venn diagram, write a short paragraph comparing the Hubble telescope with telescopes on Earth.]]> 2021-03-24 18:06:52 UTC https://padlet.com/msheyab1_1/ld8hrh2339hr63a2/wish/1349403659 msheyab1_1 https://padlet.com/msheyab1_1/ld8hrh2339hr63a2/wish/1349405097 Hubble has helped scientists learn about our solar system. The telescope observes comets and planets. Hubble even discovered moons around Pluto that had not been seen before. The telescope has helped scientists understand
how planets and galaxies form. Galaxies contain billions of stars. A picture called "Hubble Ultra Deep Field" shows some of the farthest galaxies ever seen. Pictures from Hubble help scientists learn more about the whole universe. Because of Hubble pictures, scientists think the universe is almost 14 billion years old.

stars and space. Edwin P. Hubble made important discoveries about the universe in the early 1900s.]]> 2021-03-24 18:07:16 UTC https://padlet.com/msheyab1_1/ld8hrh2339hr63a2/wish/1349405894 msheyab1_1 https://padlet.com/msheyab1_1/ld8hrh2339hr63a2/wish/1349406851 The mixture of gases that surround a planet is called its atmosphere. Earth's atmosphere changes and blocks some of the light that comes from space. Hubble flies around, or orbits, high above Earth and its atmosphere.
So, Hubble can see space better than telescopes on Earth can. Hubble is not the kind of telescope that you look through with your eye. Hubble uses a digital camera. It takes pictures like a cell phone. Then Hubble uses radio waves to send the pictures through the air back to Earth.]]> 2021-03-24 18:07:27 UTC https://padlet.com/msheyab1_1/ld8hrh2339hr63a2/wish/1349406851 msheyab1_1 https://padlet.com/msheyab1_1/ld8hrh2339hr63a2/wish/1349408163
The Hubble Space Telescope is a large telescope in space. NASA launched Hubble in 1990. Hubble is as long as a large school bus. It weighs as much as two adult elephants. Hubble travels around Earth at about 5 miles per second.
That is as fast as driving a car from the East Coast of the United States to the West Coast in 10 minutes. The distance between the two coasts is 4,800 km, which is similar to driving from Amman to Aqaba and back 14 times!
Hubble faces toward space. It takes pictures of planets, stars and galaxies. Hubble has seen stars being born.
Hubble has seen stars die. It has seen galaxies that are trillions of miles away. Hubble also has seen comet pieces crash into the gases above Jupiter.
Scientists have learned a lot about space from Hubble pictures. The pictures are beautiful to look at too.]]> 2021-03-24 18:07:43 UTC https://padlet.com/msheyab1_1/ld8hrh2339hr63a2/wish/1349408163
