Hubble: The Wonders Of Space Revealed

Streaming video - 2019

The dream of a space telescope took 20 years to realise. Now, 30 years on, comes the incredible story of one of the most complex machines ever made. The Hubble telescope has made more than 1.3 million observations and enabled over 15,000 scientific papers to be written. Its history has been dramatic. A triumphant launch that turned into disaster. Astronauts risking their lives to fix it. But ultimately, it’s an invention that opened up the universe in unimaginable ways. This anniversary film tells the whole story and meets the scientists and astronomers who use Hubble on a daily basis as well as astronauts from each of the missions that have serviced and updated it.
