10 tonnes
The quantity is exact as entered. Comparisons use the clearly stated specimen, model or nominal measurement.
Hubble Space Telescope
Hubble is 13.2 m long and has an in-orbit mass of about 11,110 kg. Solar arrays extend laterally beyond the calibrated tube length.
The marked mass in orbit is calibrated. Unmeasured illustration details are representative.
