A dramatic mission in 1993 installed corrective optics so that the intended science program could finally begin. Those events are related in a companion to this book, The Hubble Space Telescope: From Concept to Success. Enhancing Hubble?s Vision: Service Missions That Expanded Our View of the Universe tells the story of the four missions between 1997 and 2009 that repaired, serviced and upgraded the instruments on the telescope to maintain its state-of-the-art capabilities. It draws on first hand interviews with those closely involved in the project. The spacewalking skills and experiences gained from maintaining and upgrading Hubble had direct application to the construction of the International Space Station and help with its maintenance. These skills can be applied to future human and robotic satellite servicing and maintenance activities as well, not only in Earth orbit but at locations deeper in space. Originally intended to operate for fifteen years, Hubble has just passed its 25th anniversary, and there is every expectation that it will survive for thirty years. Despite its early problems, the Hubble Space Telescope has become a lasting legacy of the Space Shuttle program, and indeed is a national treasure. 410 0$aSpace Exploration 606 $aAerospace engineering 606 $aAstronautics 606 $aAstronomy 606 $aObservations, Astronomical 606 $aAstronomy?Observations 606 $aLasers 606 $aPhotonics 606 $aAerospace Technology and Astronautics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T17050 606 $aPopular Science in Astronomy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Q11009 606 $aAstronomy, Observations and Techniques$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P22014 606 $aOptics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31030 615 0$aAerospace engineering. 615 0$aAstronautics. 615 0$aAstronomy. 615 0$aObservations, Astronomical. 615 0$aAstronomy?Observations. 615 0$aLasers. 615 0$aPhotonics. 615 14$aAerospace Technology and Astronautics. 615 24$aPopular Science in Astronomy. 615 24$aAstronomy, Observations and Techniques. 615 24$aOptics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices. 676 $a620 700 $aShayler$b David J$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0805083 702 $aHarland$b David M$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254606403321 996 $aEnhancing Hubble's Vision$92536246 997 $aUNINA
