The LBT, or Large Binocular Telescope, located on Mt. Graham in SE Arizona. We got to join 100 international guests as the nearly completed telescope flexed it's 600 tons in silent perfection.

Last week we did a story on the Hubble telescope and the upcoming and final servicing mission to fix it up. The James Webb Space Telescope was mentioned, but not many details were given. This video found on the NASA site shows what is new with JWST, why it is better than the Hubble and a bit of what we can expect. The telescope is still being built and it is possible it will be delayed a bit, but JWST is scheduled to fly no earlier than 2013, so we have a bit of time to admire the images from Hubble a bit longer.

On August 11th, 2008 the Hubble Telescope hit the 100,000 orbit mark! Since its launch in April of 1990 the Hubble Space Telescope has been traveling at 5 miles per second with its on-board odometer racking up around 2.72 BILLION miles! That's about 5,700 trips to the moon and back! In October of this year the STS-125 crew will be be working on the 5th and final servicing mission to Hubble. There are currently 5 spacewalks scheduled for Atlantis where astronauts will install new equipment and repair broken instruments. Once this mission is complete, NASA's favorite telescope will need to live out the remainder of its days alone in space, with no chance of repair. This is the story of the Hubble Space Telescope, or HST.
In this video, we look at some of the remarkable images of space brought to us by the Hubble Space Telescope.
I made this video with my Bushnell 4.5" telescope and my Sony Cybershot 6MP Camera. It shows the craters of the Moon clearly with minor shaking (that is because I was holding the Camera with my hands [no mounts what so ever])
