Dozens of fun quizzes Encyclopedia Article from Encarta Hubble, Edwin Powell Multimedia 4 items Hubble, Edwin Powell (1889–1953), American astronomer, who made important contributions to the study of galaxies , the expansion of the universe, and the size of the universe. Hubble was the first to discover that fuzzy patches of light in the sky called spiral nebula were actually galaxies like Earth’s galaxy, the Milky Way . Hubble also found the first evidence for the expansion of the universe, and his work led to a much better understanding of the universe’s size. Hubble was born in Marshfield, Missouri. He attended high school in Chicago, Illinois, and received his bachelor’s degree in mathematics and astronomy in 1910. He was awarded a Rhodes Scholarship to study at the University of Oxford in England, where he earned a law degree in 1912. He returned to the United States in 1913 and settled in Kentucky, where his family had moved. From 1913 to 1914 Hubble practiced law and taught high school in Kentucky and Indiana. In 1914 he moved to Wisconsin to take a research post at the University of Chicago’s Yerkes Observatory.

    Extractions: NEWS GALLERY DISCOVERIES FUN ... Frequently Asked Questions Who is Edwin P. Hubble and what has he to do with galaxies? Edwin P. Hubble revolutionized cosmology by proving that the clouds of light astronomers saw in the night sky were actually other galaxies beyond our Milky Way. His greatest discovery was in 1929, when he identified the relationship between a galaxy's distance and the speed with which it is moving. The farther a galaxy is from Earth, the faster it is moving away from us. This is known as Hubble's Law. He also constructed a method of classifying the different shapes of galaxies. Edwin Powell Hubble was born in Marshfield, Missouri. In 1910 he received his undergraduate degree from the University of Chicago and studied law under a Rhodes Scholarship at Oxford University. Later he changed his mind and completed his Ph.D. in astronomy at Chicago's Yerkes Observatory in 1917. He served in the infantry during World War I. He once said that he "chucked the law for astronomy," knowing that even if he was second-rate or third-rate, it was astronomy that mattered.

83. Edwin Hubble...And The Myth That He Discovered The Expanding Universe

    Extractions: This supplementary essay is for those who may be asking if Edwin Hubble was consistent in his work. On my main page I cited a quote from Hubble that is at odds with the myth that Hubble discovered an expanding universe. To my knowledge, Hubble’s major contribution was the discovery of Cepheid variables in nearby galaxies, “thus demonstrating to the satisfaction of almost all astronomers the extra galactic nature of the spirals,” so writes Robert W. Smith, author of The Expanding Universe: Astronomy’s ‘Great Debate’ 1900-1931 , (Cambridge University Press, 1982), who also informs us in his “The Origins of the Velocity-Distance Relation” ( Science History Publications We shall argue that Hubble did not claim that he had found a linear velocity-distance relation, since he was unsure of the cause of a galaxy’s redshift. Also, Hubble, as he himself acknowledged, was working within a well-defined problem area, and before 1929 other astronomers had considered the existence of a redshift-distance relation. Hubble’s success was not to “discover” a relation; rather, it was to convince his colleagues that the relation was linear. Most of todays’ astronomers/cosmologists have ignored and/or abandoned Hubble. This indicates that Hubble has not succeeded. For Hubble found that the observational data best fit a linear relation between redshift and distance. But to Hubble a linear relation did not mean an expanding universe. Before I explain the above statement further, let’s take a look at how Hubble considered the interpretation of redshifts as being velocity-shifts. From

    Extractions: Hubble was born in 1889 in Marshfield, Missouri. His undergraduate studies at the University of Chicago emphasized mathematics and astronomy, and led to the B.S. degree in 1910. He spent the next three years as a Rhodes scholar at Oxford, where he studied in the field of law and received the M.A. degree. He returned to astronomy at the Yerkes Observatory of the University of Chicago, where he earned the Ph.D. in 1917. Hubble was offered a staff position by George Ellery Hale, the founder and director of Carnegie Institution's Mount Wilson Observatory, near Pasadena, California. But before accepting, Hubble served with the U.S. Army in France, where he rose to the rank of Major. He returned to America in 1919 and accepted the Mount Wilson appointment. He remained with Carnegie until his death in 1953. Shortly before his death, Palomar's 200-inch Hale Telescope was completed. Hubble was the first to use it. He died of stroke on September 28, 1953.

    Extractions: (1889-1953) US astronomer. Known for his work on extragalactic nebulae. A Rhode scholar who practised law for a year before gaining a doctorate in astronomy. In 1923 he proved that Andromeda lay outside our galaxy, and hence other galaxies existed outside our own. The Hubble Constant represents the hypothetical period of time since all the matter in the universe was in one 'super-dense' agglomeration - if expansion was constant. Estimated at between 5 and 10 billion years. The optical Hubble Space Telescope is named after him. [PRS. DOS] HUD (1905-76) US businessman, aviator, movie producer, billionaire. In later years he kept a low profile in his personal and business life. He inherited the Hughes Tool Company from his father. By his 20s he was getting $2 million a year and began film production in Hollywood including 'Hells Angels' (1930), 'Front Page' (1931) and 'Scarface' (1932). He also founded Hughes Aircraft Company that produced experimental aircraft. In 1935 he set the world air speed record at 566km/h in an aircraft of his own design. Later he owned much of the hotel and nightclub industry in Las Vegas and also invested in airlines and film studios but lived in seclusion. After his death no legal will could be found.

    Extractions: Search WSM Group Top of Page Edwin Hubble - Cosmology The Wave Structure of Matter (WSM) explains Hubble Redshift with Distance from Huygens Principle, not Doppler Shift due to Expanding Universe / Space (If the redshifts are a Doppler shift) ... the observations as they stand lead to the anomaly of a closed universe, curiously small and dense, and, it may be added, suspiciously young. On the other hand, if redshifts are not Doppler effects, these anomalies disappear and the region observed appears as a small, homogeneous, but insignificant portion of a universe extended indefinitely both in space and time. (E. Hubble, Roy. Astron. Soc. M. N., 17, 506, 1937) A few years later Hubble showed, by special investigation of the extra-galactic nebulae, that the spectral lines emitted showed a red shift which increases regularly with distance of the nebulae. This can be interpreted in regard to our present knowledge only in the sense of Doppler's principle, as an expansive motion of the system of stars in the large - as required, according to Friedman, by the field equations of gravitation. Hubble's discovery can, therefore, be considered to some extent as a confirmation of the theory.
