NASA's Hubble Space Telescope began a remarkable journey of discovery on April 24, 1990. After 20 years in space, the observatory has shown humanity more of the universe than ever before. Hubble's accomplishments include proving the existence of massive black holes, the phenomena of dark energy and many others that have rewritten astronomy textbooks. With the help of the space shuttle, astronauts clarified Hubble's vision, then sharpened with ever-improving instruments.
