The
Hubble Space Telescope
The Hubble Space Telescope is one of the most important
scientific instruments ever constructed. Nearing the end of its working
life, the telescope is scheduled for one more servicing mission in October
2008 to repair and upgrade its cameras, sensors, gyroscopes, batteries,
instruments, and critical systems. Launched over 18 years ago, the aging
space telescope will be like new upon completion of servicing mission
4. Join us Tuesday evenings in July as we explore the capabilities,
history, and future of this amazing piece of modern technology. You'll
gain an insight into how the space telescope works, find out what the
hubble has been and will be studying, and marvel at incredible imagery
sent to us from our space born eye on the heavens.
