New Russian Hubble 1000 times sharper

A rocket carrying a telescope which will be the most powerful in space has been launched from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. Scientists have already nicknamed the Zenit-3SB the "green" rocket because it uses kerosene and oxygen as its fuel and is environmentally friendly. The rocket developed jointly by Russia and Ukraine will propel into orbit a new generation space telescope designed to extend mankind's understanding of the forming of galaxies.
