Hubble knows there is interesting stuff out there, but Hubble isn't quite big enough.

I don't know how anyone can see the Hubble 'Deep Field' image and not feel like something else is going about its business out there.

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.

Even Hubble hasn't found yet the end of this universe, and we don't know that it has any end.

When my father died, those years when he was working on the Hubble came back to me, and it seemed fitting to imagine him as having somehow merged with the large mystery that the universe represents.

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.

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.

I'm such a long-term investor, I've never really let go and celebrated what I did with the Hubble telescope.

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.

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.
