Preparing to rescue Hubble

by Volker Weber

The Space Shuttle Atlantis is scheduled to launch next month (October 8th), carrying new instruments, batteries and gyroscopes to the Hubble Space Telescope. This will be the final servicing mission to Hubble, the 30th flight of the 23-year old Atlantis, and one of the final 10 flights of the Space Shuttle program, which will be retired in 2010.

I love the series "The Big Picture" from Boston.com.

I explain difficult concepts in simple ways. For free, and for money. Clue procurement and bullshit detection.
