Hubble Repair Mission Not Dead
The Baltimore Sun reports
http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/hea...pr30,1,7634542. story that NASA Administrator Michael D. Griffin has ordered engineers at the Goddard Space Flight Center to begin planning for a shuttle servicing flight that would keep Hubble functioning after 2007. The paper says that Griffin is "betting on the come," i.e., betting that the upcoming shuttle mission, which has been delayed due to additional safety concerns, will be a success. If it is, there is a pretty good possibility that there will be a Hubble repair mission. Davoud -- usenet *at* davidillig dawt com |
