Just a few questions about how capturing World Wonders in an enemy cities work,
do we get a full bonus that they give when they were first built or nothing at all?
Or somewhere in between?

For example, Hubble Space Telescope gives, when built:

1. Units (Great Scientists)
2. Building (a free Spaceship factory)
3. Bonus (+25% when building spaceship parts)

Which of the above 3 would I receive for capturing that wonder?

And does that rule apply to all other types of World Wonders? ie) only gives you bonuses and not free units or buildings etc. when captured

Well I haven't captured Hubble Space Telescope myself but what I know of capturing other wonders, you get the normal benefits from them except any 1 timer bonuses. For example, in this case you'd get the building (I believe) and the bonus but you won't get Great Scientists.

And I believe this applies to all wonders. You get all the bonuses they give you and the possible free building but you won't get any 1 timers like Great People or Free Techology etc.

Please correct me if I'm wrong but according to my experience it goes like this.
 
Yes, that's right. Not sure if the city has a chance of destroying that free building when it's taken over (since some building are destroyed) or not.
 
The code that select what should be destroyed, includes free building in it's list, so it's very possible to only get the wonder.
 
and when exactly *do* you get the wonder-benefits? on conquering the city? the next turn? when the city stops rioting?
