HST | HST patch |
This page contains philatelic information on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) satellite. Catalog numbers, years of issue, and notes on the satellites featured are given when available. If readers know of additional information or images, please contact the authors using the e-mail addresses at the bottom of this page.
Neither postal items for astronomer Edwin P. Hubble (1889 - 1953), for whom the Hubble Space Telescope was named, nor postal items with images taken by the Hubble Space Telescope, are included in this checklist unless Hubble/HST is specifically noted.
HST is one of four NASA "Great Observatories", along with the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory (CGRO), the Chandra X-ray Observatory (CXO), and the Spitzer Space Telescope (SST).
An astronomical/telescope satellite somewhat similar to HST, but with solar panels that are perpendicular, rather than parallel, to the spacecraft body, is considered to be Chandra/CXO/AXAF in an early-design stage.
Launch information (found elsewhere) |
Launch covers (including anniversary-of-launch covers, and launch-related event covers) (farther below) |
