I'm such a long-term investor, I've never really let go and celebrated what I did with the Hubble telescope. -- Story Musgrave
It's always a combination of physics and poetry that I find inspiring. It's hard to wrap your head around things like the Hubble scope. -- Tom Hanks
A Hubble Space Telescope photograph of the universe evokes far more awe for creation than light streaming through a stained glass window in a cathedral. -- Michael Shermer
Hubble is very close to my heart, and going back to Hubble, because I was there once already in 1993, is really a great privilege for me. -- Claude Nicollier
That's what Hubble can do for us. It can tell us whether the universe is expanding forever or if one day it's going to come back together. -- Duane G. Carey
The Next Generation Space Telescope, which will be located much further away from the Earth than the Hubble Space Telescope presently is, will also explore the infrared part of the spectrum. -- Claude Nicollier
With correction, and given the chance, 'Terra Nova' can and will deliver seasons of transcendent images and story-telling. Failing to renew 'Terra Nova' is shortsighted, as myopic as it would have been to scrap the Hubble. 'Terra Nova' is the Hubble Telescope of television. -- Stephen Lang
Countless women are alive today because of ideas stimulated by a design flaw in the Hubble Space Telescope. -- Neil deGrasse Tyson
Even Hubble hasn't found yet the end of this universe, and we don't know that it has any end. -- Billy Graham
With the eyes of the Hubble Space Telescope we have seen that the House of God is the House of Chaos! -- Mehmet Murat ildan
I wondered had I really oversold the Hubble. I have to admit that, since, I have been convinced that I didn't. -- Nancy Roman
The Hubble Law is one of the great discoveries in science; it is one of the main supports of the scientific story of Genesis. -- Robert Jastrow
With the Hubble telescope and all the other things that are out there, I believe something would have come through. Today, I really believe we are unique. -- Mark Goddard
I feel privileged and honored to have flown. It's been a tremendous ride, looking back on the legacy and accomplishments, like the Hubble telescope and the launching of the International Space Station in 1998. -- Alan G. Poindexter
Looking at scientific inquiry, next paradigm will be based on very large datasets. Scientists are in the lead in handling very large datasets - Hubble telescope or Large Hadron Collider are massive datasets. -- David Willetts
Hubble touches people. When you're looking that far out, you're giving people their place in the universe, it touches people. Science is often visual, so it doesn't need translation. It's like poetry, it touches you. -- Story Musgrave
If spirituality is the sense of awe and humility in the face of the creation, what could be more awesome and humbling than the deep space discovered by Hubble and the cosmologists, and the deep time discovered by Darwin and the evolutionists. -- Michael Shermer
The Earth - from our altitude at Hubble, we're 350 miles up. We can see the curvature. We can see the roundness of our home, our home planet. And it's the most magnificent thing I've ever seen. It's like looking into Heaven. It's paradise. -- Michael J. Massimino
In this way, Edwin Hubble worked out the distances to nine different galaxies. We now know that our galaxy is only one of some hundred thousand million that can be seen using modern telescopes, each galaxy itself containing some hundred thousand million stars. -- Stephen Hawking
I will fight in the United States Senate this year to fund a servicing mission to Hubble by 2008, a mission that would potentially increase Hubbles power and efficiency by a factor of 10 and allow us to look back almost to the beginning of the universe. -- Barbara Mikulski

When we can build something like the Hubble telescope and fathom images of this vast cosmos of which we are a part, it really gives pause to wonder what and who we are within a larger framework than linear adventures at the shopping mall and taxes. -- Vanna Bonta
Even with an improperly ground mirror, the Hubble delivered extraordinary images. When the flaw was corrected, the Hubble delivered images of transcendent beauty and value for many years. So too 'Terra Nova.' Even in its flawed first season, each episode was full of marvelous moments and beautiful images. -- Stephen Lang
The reason we have the stars twinkle at night is because the light is being kind of blurred by the atmosphere around the Earth. That is why the Hubble Space Telescope is so good, because it is above the atmosphere. So it is kind of like looking at the sun from the bottom of a swimming pool, versus looking at the sun above the swimming pool. -- Michael J. Massimino
Now go to bed, you crazy night owl! You have to be at NASA early in the morning. So they can look for your penis with the Hubble telescope. -- Tina Fey
Science sent the Hubble telescope out into space, so it could capture light and the absence thereof, from the very beginning of time. And the telescope really did that. So now we know that there was once absolutely nothing, such a perfect nothing that there wasn't even nothing or once. -- Kurt Vonnegut
Ironically, it is only when disaster strikes that the shuttle makes the headlines. Its routine flights attracted less media interest than unmanned probes to the planets or the images from the Hubble Telescope. The fate of Columbia (like that of Challenger in 1986) reminded us that space is still a hazardous environment. -- Martin Rees
As we begin the 21st century, the Hubble space telescope is providing us with information about as yet uncharted regions of the universe and the promise that we may learn something about the origin of the cosmos. This same spirit of adventure is also being directed to the most complex structure that exists in the universe - the human brain. -- Floyd E. Bloom
