The end of Hubble
Eyeing a post-Hubble Universe. Sad.
33% of NASA's results for 2% of its budget. Hubble:
- Improved the accuracy of estimates of the ang of the universe
- Prooved the existance of black holes
- Confirmed that quasars are galactic nuclei powered by black holes
- Showed that the expansion of the Universe is accelerating
