Herschel Space Observatory
The Herschel Space Observatory was a space observatory built and operated by the European Space Agency (ESA). It was active from 2009 to 2013, and was the largest infrared telescope ever launched, carrying a single 3.5-metre (11.5 ft) mirror and instruments sensitive to the far infrared and submillimetre wavebands (55–672 µm). Herschel was the fourth cornerstone mission in the ESA science programme, along with Rosetta, Planck, and Gaia. NASA is a partner in the Herschel mission, with US participants contributing to the mission; providing mission-enabling instrument technology and sponsoring the NASA Herschel Science Center (NHSC) at the Infrared Processing and Analysis Center and the Herschel Data Search at the Infrared Science Archive.
The observatory was carried into orbit in May 2009, reaching the second Lagrangian point (L2) of the Earth–Sun system, 1,500,000 kilometres (930,000 mi) from Earth, about two months later. Herschel is named after Sir William Herschel, the discoverer of the infrared spectrum and planet Uranus, and his sister and collaborator Caroline Herschel.

Space observatory
A space observatory is any instrument (such as a telescope) in outer space that is used for observation of distant planets, galaxies and other outer space objects. The first such space observatory was the Hubble Space Telescope launched in 1990. Space observatories avoid many of the problems of ground observatories, such as light pollution and the filtering and distortion of electromagnetic radiation (scintillation).
This category is distinct from other observatories located in space that are pointed toward Earth for the purpose of reconnaissance and other types of information gathering.
History
In 1946, American theoretical astrophysicist Lyman Spitzer was the first to conceive the idea of a telescope in outer space, a decade before the Soviet Union launched the first satellite, Sputnik 1.
Spitzer's proposal called for a large telescope that would not be hindered by Earth's atmosphere. After lobbying in the 1960s and 70s for such a system to be built, Spitzer's vision ultimately materialized into the Hubble Space Telescope, which was launched on April 24, 1990 by the Space Shuttle Discovery (STS-31).

15 BIGGEST Observatories on Earth
We’ve always been fascinated with ‘everything space’. It is, after all, the final frontier. There’s surely a lot going on ‘out there’ that we don’t know about. But thanks to modern observatories, there’s also a lot that we do know. And as our technology advances, and our observatories get bigger and better, we’re able to learn more and more about that infinite ‘star-speckled’ sky.

The people in charge of managing space telescopes are already planning for the follow-up to JWST: The Carl Sagan Observatory. The plan is to design it so it will be able to detect candidate Exo-Earths!
Big thank you to Matt Mountain (STSci, AURA) who recently gave a lecture in Oxford on his experience leading the planning and development of JWST and who touched on the Carl Sagan observatory in his talk.

Since it launched more than three decades ago, the data that the Hubble space telescope has collected has been used to write more than 18,000 peer-reviewed scientific publications, from planet formation to gigantic black holes. But it is Hubble's awe-inspiring images that have reinvigorated the public interest in astronomy. At the click of a button, anyone can gaze at distant parts of the universe and the wonders that it contains, without ever having to leave our planet. Not since the days of Galileo has a telescope revolutionised our understanding of the cosmos and so broadly piqued the curiosity of the human race. Hubble is our window into the unknown.
Sit back, relax, enjoy the incredible music and allow your eyes to scan across some of the greatest images ever captured. This is just a tiny part of the universe we exist within.

AD | Huge thanks to KiwiCo for sponsoring today’s video. Go to https://www.kiwico.com/astrodrbecky and use code ASTRODRBECKY for 50% off your first month of monthly lines. | Move over JWST, move over Euclid, the eyes of the astronomy world are all moving to look at the Vera Rubin Observatory which is getting closer and closer to what’s known as “first light” in August 2024 - when after 13 years of construction in the Chilean desert, for the first time light will be collected by the 8.4m mirror and travel through the telescope’s optical system. Rubin is one of the most ambitious astronomy projects we’ve ever seen - yes its seen all the usual technological advancements that come with a new observatory - but Rubin stands out due to the sheer scale of what its going to attempt to do. You see, unlike other telescopes which astronomers apply to use to focus in one specific object that they’re really interested in, Rubin will complete a full survey of the entire sky every three nights - splitting the sky up into a mosaic and going back night after night to collect more light and build up a picture of what’s in each part of the sky so that it can record the things that have changed in the sky each night - from supernova, to asteroids, or burping black holes. All of this together means that Rubin will collect a HUGE amount of data, its estimated that it will detect 20 billion objects in the sky over its 10 year survey, and flag 10 million things that change in the sky each night. Over its 10-year survey, it will collect around 60 petabytes of data! So with all that data, Rubin is set to change the face of astronomy forever, as long as we’re prepared for that deluge of data...

We’ve always been fascinated with ‘everything space’. It is, after all, the final frontier. There’s surely a lot going on ‘out there’ that we don’t know about. But thanks to modern observatories, there’s also a lot that we do know. And as our technology advances, and our observatories get bigger and better, we’re able to learn more and more about that infinite ‘star-speckled’ sky. Today, we’re taking a look at the 15 Biggest Observatories on Earth.

If you’re struggling, consider therapy with BetterHelp #ad. Click https://betterhelp.com/drbecky for a 10% discount on your first month of therapy with a credentialed professional specific to your needs. | NASA’s next great observatory that’s set to launch is the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope (which used to be known as WFIRST). The Roman Space Telescope is the successor to Hubble with a similar wavelength range and the same size telescope mirror. But Roman has been designed to look at a much bigger region of sky at once; its field of view is 100 times bigger than Hubble’s! Roman is set to launch in 2026, so it’s not now that we have to wait now. So in this video let’s chat about 1) who Nancy Grace Roman was and why the telescope is named after her, 2) Roman’s main science goals are and what it will study, and 3) how it differ’s from ESA’s euclid space telescope which was launched last year.

In particular, I look at whether the energy output from the disk of material orbiting around a growing supermassive black hole can stop a galaxy from forming stars.

Since it launched more than three decades ago, the data that the Hubble space telescope has collected has been used to write more than 18,000 peer-reviewed scientific publications, from planet formation to gigantic black holes. But it is Hubble's awe-inspiring images that have reinvigorated the public interest in astronomy. At the click of a button, anyone can gaze at distant parts of the universe and the wonders that it contains, without ever having to leave our planet. Not since the days of Galileo has a telescope revolutionised our understanding of the cosmos and so broadly piqued the curiosity of the human race. Hubble is our window into the unknown.
Sit back, relax, enjoy the incredible music and allow your eyes to scan across some of the greatest images ever captured. This is just a tiny part of the universe we exist within.

Herschel Space Observatory
The Herschel Space Observatory was a space observatory built and operated by the European Space Agency (ESA). It was active from 2009 to 2013, and was the largest infrared telescope ever launched, carrying a single 3.5-metre (11.5 ft) mirror and instruments sensitive to the far infrared and submillimetre wavebands (55–672 µm). Herschel was the fourth cornerstone mission in the ESA science programme, along with Rosetta, Planck, and Gaia. NASA is a partner in the Herschel mission, with US participants contributing to the mission; providing mission-enabling instrument technology and sponsoring the NASA Herschel Science Center (NHSC) at the Infrared Processing and Analysis Center and the Herschel Data Search at the Infrared Science Archive.
The observatory was carried into orbit in May 2009, reaching the second Lagrangian point (L2) of the Earth–Sun system, 1,500,000 kilometres (930,000 mi) from Earth, about two months later. Herschel is named after Sir William Herschel, the discoverer of the infrared spectrum and planet Uranus, and his sister and collaborator Caroline Herschel.
