The Hubble Space Telescope orbits the Earth at an average altitude of about 347 miles (560 kilometers) and travels at a speed of approximately 17,500 miles per hour. This translates to roughly 4.86 miles per second. This high speed allows Hubble to complete an orbit around the Earth approximately every 95 minutes.
