Hubble's Cosmic Journey

Your portal to the cosmos is this. On board the Space Shuttle Discovery, Hubble was launched in April 1990. One of humanity's greatest aspirations—to launch a telescope into space, far above the atmosphere's obscuring effects, in order to obtain the clearest possible picture of the cosmos—was realized with its launch into orbit more than 500 kilometers above the Earth. But once Hubble's mirror was discovered to have a fault in the months that followed, it became evident that the dream had changed into a horror. A rescue mission to correct the problem was mounted after three years of agony and tremendous human resolve. The outcomes were astounding and gave us the most complete understanding of the cosmos ever. The men and women who designed, created, maintained, and operated Hubble—the most renowned scientific equipment in history—are the subject of this narrative.
