1 00:00:14,070 --> 00:00:11,430 the hubble space telescope 2 00:00:15,910 --> 00:00:14,080 can see light in the ultraviolet 3 00:00:17,990 --> 00:00:15,920 wavelengths and visible wavelengths of 4 00:00:23,509 --> 00:00:18,000 light and somewhat into the infrared 5 00:00:29,269 --> 00:00:26,269 the hubble space telescope is really an 6 00:00:31,109 --> 00:00:29,279 observatory because it has several 7 00:00:32,470 --> 00:00:31,119 science instruments several modes of 8 00:00:34,870 --> 00:00:32,480 operation 9 00:00:36,630 --> 00:00:34,880 we have multiple cameras multiple 10 00:00:38,150 --> 00:00:36,640 spectrographs they each have different 11 00:00:40,229 --> 00:00:38,160 capabilities in terms of their 12 00:00:43,430 --> 00:00:40,239 sensitivities or the kinds of 13 00:00:45,110 --> 00:00:43,440 frequencies they can receive 14 00:00:47,510 --> 00:00:45,120 we can also use hubble in different 15 00:00:49,510 --> 00:00:47,520 kinds of intriguing modes depending on 16 00:00:51,830 --> 00:00:49,520 what we're trying to observe we can even 17 00:00:54,069 --> 00:00:51,840 track fast moving things like comets 18 00:00:56,150 --> 00:00:54,079 moving through our solar system so it is 19 00:00:58,869 --> 00:00:56,160 that versatility of the scientific 20 00:01:01,029 --> 00:00:58,879 instruments and the way we use them that 21 00:01:03,510 --> 00:01:01,039 enables hubble to be a wonderful 22 00:01:05,350 --> 00:01:03,520 observatory for all kinds of astronomy 23 00:01:10,910 --> 00:01:05,360 from the nearby solar system to the
