What was wrong with the Hubble Space Telescope?
The problem with Hubble Space Telescope (the HST, or just the "Hubble") was that the primary reflector, that is, the mirror which redirects the incoming light to focus it, was ground using an incorrectly calibrated reference as a guide. This left it "out of focus" in areas farther from the center. There were a couple of checks for accuracy made with secondary references, and they were off, but the "warning" was ignored and the opinion was offered that the two secondary references were not as accurate as the primary reference was. More information can be had by reading the Wikipedia post on the Hubble. A link to that post can be found below.
