Edwin Hubble was an American astronomer for whom the HST was named after.  He was the first person to discover that there are large-scale galaxies beyond the Milky Way and that they are distributed almost uniformly in all directions.  This I believe is a picture of him with the 100 -in. (254 -cm) telescope at Mt. Wilson Observatory where he discovered what is now known as Hubble's Law.  He never got to see his namesake because of his death  in 1953.
The Instruments:    There are a variety of different instruments contained in the Hubble Space Telescope.  These include:
                                    1    WIDE FIELD / PLANETARY CAMERA 2 
                                    2    THE FAINT OBJECT CAMERA
                                    3    THE FAINT OBJECT SPECTROGRAPH
                                    4    GODDARD HIGH RESOLUTION
                                          SPECTROGRAPH
The Pictures:    This is what is really spectacular about the Hubble Telescope, the pictures.  Take a look at some of my favorite snaps.  If this does not fulfill your full view check out my Link Page

The Links:    These are the sites that I did most of my research on.  Also there are some great spots to get more pictures of some cool celestial bodies, Edwin Hubble, or some of the Telescope itself.
