Hubble’s Field of View. Large telescopes often have small fields of view. For example, the Hubble Space Telescope’s (HST’s) advanced camera has a field of view that is roughly square and about 0.06° on a side. a. Calculate the angular area of the HST’s field of view in square degrees. b. The angular area of the entire sky is about 41,250 square degrees. How many pictures would the HST have to take with its camera to obtain a complete picture of the entire sky?
