Final Mission to service the Hubble
Space Telescope |

Last
month's STS-125 mission was the final mission to service the Hubble Space
Telescope (HST). It was also the last Space Shuttle mission to not go to the
International Space Station (ISS). In order to extend the life of the HST, the
mission replaced sensors, gyroscopes, and batteries and also added thermal
covers for protection. Two new instruments were added which will greatly enhance
data and photography of the universe. IMAX-3D photography was done for a future
movie.
The photo consists of members of the Flight Activities Officer (FAO) team, the
STS-125 astronauts, and Flight Director. Michael Scheib was the Lead FAO
for the mission. |
