Hubble Trivia: 11) How much data can Hubble store on board?

The video discusses the Hubble Space Telescope's data storage capacity of 24 gigabits, which is significantly less than modern thumb drives. It highlights the importance of efficient data management and the role of schedulers in optimizing data transfer. The process involves a continuous flow of data being sent to and from the telescope.

How much data storage does the Hubble Space Telescope have?

• 24 gigabits

• 48 gigabits

• 1 terabyte

• 100 gigabits

Why is the Hubble's data storage considered manageable despite being smaller than modern thumb drives?

• Because it is rarely used

• Because it is frequently upgraded

• Because it is shared with other telescopes

• Because it is sufficient for its operations

What is the primary focus of the Hubble's data management team?

• Reducing data usage

• Sharing data with other telescopes

• Optimizing data handling

• Increasing storage capacity

How does the scheduling team contribute to the Hubble's operations?

• By organizing data transfers

• By reducing data storage

• By minimizing data usage

• By increasing data capacity

What is a constant process for the Hubble Space Telescope?

• Data storage expansion

• Data sharing with other telescopes

• Data coming down and going up

• Data analysis
