Program Summary:
The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) has been the most
scientifically productive program in the history of NASA. Come hear about the
history of HST, including an overview of the general spacecraft design, its
launch aboard the space shuttle, and learn how spacewalking astronauts
successfully repaired the telescope and have kept it producing world-class
science for over 20 years and counting.

development, and astronaut training to support the repair and servicing of the
Space Shuttle and various space-based satellites such as the Hubble Space
Telescope and the Russian Mir Space Station. In addition, Cal has designed numerous EVA
interfaces aboard the International Space Station (ISS), and served for six
