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 in an early-design stage.

1As incorrectly noted on this item, the Endeavour Space Shuttle mission of 2000 had nothing to do with HST.
2The 50th anniversary of Europa was in 2006 and the Michel catalogue and most other information sources give 2006 as the year of issue of these stamps. The exception is Lollini, with a year of issue of 2005 in his catalogue and FDCs, but that appears to be an error. The authors list this set with the year 2006.
Below is a list of HST satellite launch covers (including anniversary-of-launch covers, and launch-related event covers).
