El telescopio Hubble: explorando el origen del universo

The video discusses the Andromeda galaxy and the Hubble Space Telescope's role in space exploration. Hubble, launched in 1990, provides clearer images than ground-based telescopes. It has revealed insights into star formation, supernovae, and the universe's age and expansion. Hubble's findings have helped calculate the universe's age at approximately 13.7 billion years. The telescope continues to guide our understanding of the universe's formation.

What is one advantage of the Hubble Space Telescope over ground-based telescopes?

• It is larger than any ground-based telescope.

• It can be used during the day.

• Its vision is not obstructed by Earth's atmosphere.

• It is closer to the stars.

What phenomenon occurs when a star reaches the end of its life?

• It explodes as a supernova.

• It turns into a planet.

• It splits into two stars.

• It becomes a black hole.

How did Hubble help scientists determine the age of the universe?

• By observing the speed of galaxy expansion.

• By analyzing the color of stars.

• By measuring the temperature of stars.

• By counting the number of galaxies.

Approximately how old is the universe according to Hubble's findings?

• 13.7 billion years

• 10.5 billion years

• 20 billion years

• 15.3 billion years

What is the ongoing role of the Hubble Space Telescope?

• To explore the ocean depths.

• To guide us in understanding cosmic formation.

• To communicate with extraterrestrial life.

• To monitor weather patterns on Earth.
