In late May 1990 the Hubble Space Telescope took its first photos. Although the telescope's focus work has not been carried out, the quality of the photos taken has surprised NASA, the owner of the telescope. Once the focus works are completed, the quality of the photographs will be multiplied by 100. On the other hand, NASA has discovered the cause of the vibration that occurred when the telescope was moving.
