[00:01.080] | --- Lesson 61 Trouble with the Hubble |
[00:06.760] | --- First listen and then answer the question. |
[00:12.640] | --- What is the special importance of a telescope in space? |
[00:20.240] | The Hubble telescope was launched into space by NASA on April 20,1990 at a cost of over a billion dollars. |
[00:33.720] | Right from the start there was trouble with the Hubble. |
[00:38.480] | The pictures it sent us were very disappointing because its main mirror was faulty! |
[00:46.360] | NASA is now going to put the telescope right, so it will soon be sending up four astronauts to repair it. |
[00:55.720] | The shuttle Endeavour will be taking the astronauts to the Hubble.^“ |
[01:01.600] | A robot-arm from the Endeavour will grab the telescope and hold it while the astronauts make the necessary repairs. |
[01:11.880] | Of course, the Hubble is above the earth's atmosphere, |
[01:17.520] | so it will soon be sending us the clearest pictures of the stars and distant galaxies that we have ever seen. |
[01:26.680] | The Hubble will tell us a great deal about the age and size of the universe. |
[01:33.560] | By the time you read this, the Hubble's eagle eye will have sent us thousands and thousands of wonderful pictures. |
