Edwin Hubble (1889–1953) was an American astronomer who fundamentally changed understanding of the universe's scale and nature. Born in Marshfield, Missouri, he earned a degree in mathematics and astronomy before serving in World War I. Hubble joined the Mount Wilson Observatory in California in 1919, where he conducted most of his significant research. In the mid-1920s, he demonstrated that certain nebulae were in fact separate galaxies beyond the Milky Way, dramatically expanding the known cosmos. His most influential work, formulated around 1929, was Hubble's Law, which showed that galaxies recede from Earth at velocities proportional to their distance—direct observational evidence for an expanding universe. This finding provided crucial support for the Big Bang model of cosmic origins. Hubble published extensively on galaxy classification and cosmology. He was awarded the Bruce Medal in 1938 and received numerous academic honors. The Hubble Space Telescope, launched in 1990, was named in his honor.
