In celebration of the anniversary of the Hubble telescope, NASA launches a tool for you to find out which photo from space was recorded on the day of your birth
How about taking advantage of the quarantine to travel to space? That alone would be fantastic, but now you can find out which photo was taken by NASA on the day of your birth. That's because the Hubble telescope, which the space agency uses to record its explorations of the stars and planets, will celebrate 30 years of its launch next month.
Launched on April 24, 1990, Hubble, which orbits our planet, is more than 500 kilometers from Earth in relation to sea level. The telescope works non-stop and has already recorded the most incredible celestial phenomena. In addition, its collections have already served as a basis for the production of more than a thousand scientific articles.
