Repairing Hubble
Title Repairing Hubble
Explanation The first Hubble Space Telescope [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap950810.html ] (HST) servicing mission, STS-61, was one of the most complicated shuttle missions [ http://www.ksc.nasa.gov/shuttle/technology/ sts-newsref/stsref-toc.html ] ever planned. Launched on December 2, 1993 in the Space Shuttle Endeavor [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap950807.html ], the astronauts were required to make 5 space walks to repair the HST. Astronaut F. Story Musgrave [ http://www.jsc.nasa.gov/Bios/htmlbios/musgrave.html ], holding one of the handrails on the HST, is seen here during what became the second longest space walk in NASA history [ http://www.ksc.nasa.gov/history/history.html ] at just under 8 hours. The highly successful mission demonstrated the ability of shuttle astronauts to repair satellites in orbit and allowed the HST to continue to explore the Universe [ http://stsci.edu/pubinfo/PR.html ]. A future HST servicing mission is planned for 1997.
Orbiting Repairmen
Title Orbiting Repairmen
Explanation In December of 1993 astronauts Story Musgrave [ http://www.jsc.nasa.gov/Bios/htmlbios/musgrave.html ] and Jeffrey Hoffman [ http://www.jsc.nasa.gov/Bios/htmlbios/hoffman.html ] performed the orbiting repairmans' ballet 400 miles above the Earth. They are seen in this photo perched at the end of the Space Shuttle Endeavour [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap950807.html ]'s robotic arm making final repairs to the four story tall Hubble Space Telescope [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap950810.html ]. The coast line of western Australia is visible below. The complex and highly successful repair mission [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap951116.html ] allowed HST to see into the Universe with unprecedented clarity.

Also seated on the dais are, from left, former astronaut and Senator John H. Glenn, astronaut and Associate Director (Technical) of the Johnson Space Center John W. Young, and former astronaut Buzz Aldrin, all previously inducted into the Hall of Fame. Being inducted with Musgrave are Space Shuttle astronauts Daniel Brandenstein, Robert "Hoot" Gibson, and Sally Ride. Conceived by six of the Mercury Program astronauts, the U.S. Astronaut Hall of Fame opened in 1990 to provide a place where space travelers could be remembered for their participation and accomplishments in the U.S. space program. The four new inductees join 48 previously honored astronauts from the ranks of the Gemini, Apollo, Skylab, Apollo-Soyuz, and Space Shuttle programs.

Description STS-49 Endeavour, Orbiter Vehicle (OV) 105, International Telecommunications Satellite Organization (INTELSAT) VI-R mass simulator exercise with astronaut F. Story Musgrave using the Errant Satellite Simulator in the Mockup and Integration Laboratory Bldg 9NE. Ground-based exercises were conducted after several failed INTELSAT capture attempts during the STS-49 mission. Musgrave uses the capture bar to grapple INTELSAT (35413, 35414, 35415) and a telescopic pole to slow INTELSAT spin (35416, 35417). Test results provided input for orbiting STS-49 crewmembers on possible alternate INTELSAT capture procedures.
