Edwin Hubble and the Discovery of Cosmos/Stars
Edwin Hubble was a hard working man that only worked his hardest to get what he wanted, at the end, he only wanted a Nobel Prize for his work. The Nobel Prize runners had never given the prize to him for his work and had only given him and money raise. A couple days later, Edwin had died. But before his death, he had made a couple discoveries, and I am going to tell you about them.
Edwin Powell Hubble was born in Missouri in 1889. Edward was the son of an insurance executive. His fathers name was John Powell Hubble, his mothers name was Virginia Lee James, and on the other hand, his spouse’s name was Grace Burke. When Edwin Hubble was eight years old, he had gotten his first telescope, hand

He then went right back to the Mount Wilson Observatory working underpinning the new astrophysics, which was later had the named changed to Cosmetology. At the time, the 100 inch hooker telescope was the most powerful on earth and he had worked with it. During the time, he had discovered his greatest scientific rival. During Edwin Hubble’s time there, he had to spend many cold late nights looking to find things to prove Shapley wrong on his discovery. In October, 1923, he thought he found a nova star in the Nebula. Edwin had taken it to look at other scientists. They had discovered that is was the Cepheid star instead of the nova star. Edwin then knew that it was a million light years away far outside the milky way. This was the great importance to the world for any scientist. But at the same time, Hubble didn’t think that it was the greatest time and he thought his greater time would yet to come. In 1929, he had made another find. Now at this time in the life period, when finding the stars it is now known as Hubble’s law. The discovery of the stars was the breakthrough for the astronomers in the lab and then was viewed for the statistic universe. The Hubble method was used in finding any star and finding how far away it was from the
