By 2010, The Hubble Space Telescope's cumulative costs were estimated to be about $10 billion US dollars. For a telescope 500+ kilometres above the ground have you ever thought "Why spend all that money on space junk? Surely that money is better spent in hospitals."
Well..... actually thanks to the Hubble Space Telescope the detection of breast cancer is aeons ahead thanks to the technologies developed for the telescope.
This episode discusses how technology for the HST has now dramatically benefited breast cancer detection with 15,934 females being diagnosed every year in Australia.
