How do you apply to use the Hubble Space Telescope?
Ever wondered what you have to do get to use the Hubble Space Telescope? There's a lengthy application process that comes round once a year and the deadline just passed. Now that stress is over, I figured I'd explain to those of you who are curious. This is pretty much the same for any telescope, including the James Webb Space Telescope too!

👩🏽💻 I'm Dr. Becky Smethurst, an astrophysicist at the University of Oxford. I love making videos about science with an unnatural level of enthusiasm. I like to focus on how we know things, not just what we know. And especially, the things we still don't know. If you've ever wondered about something in space and couldn't find an answer online - you can ask me! My day job is to do research into how supermassive black holes can affect the galaxies that they live in. In particular, I look at whether the energy output from the disk of material orbiting around a growing supermassive black hole can stop a galaxy from forming stars.
