Description
Last year the Hubble Space Telescope celebrated its 25th
anniversary. Hubble has produced a paradigm shift in how
both astronomers and the general public understand the Universe,
and it may be time to take stock of all the accomplishments of
the many space missions undertaken by numerous agencies (ESA, NASA,
etc.) over the past ~30 years. We will do this with an eye to set
the stage for the next game-changing space missions.
