The Universe is bigger than was thought.

RE: The Universe is bigger than was thought.
Hubble (the astronomer, not the telescope) worked out the universe was expanding with galaxies spread over a (comparatively) tiny distance away from us compared to what his namesake telescope can detect.

I don't if any of the new (earth based) telescope proposals are designed to, let's say, equal the Hubble telescopes magnitude limit in a much shorter time than Hubble does and cover a much larger chunk of the sky while doing it, but clearly, the utility of such a telescope is evident.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
