SPACE SHUTTLESPACE SHUTTLE DISCOVERYSTS 82 It was NASA’s second mission to service the Hubble Space Telescope, during which Discovery’s crew repaired and upgraded the telescope’s scientific instruments, increasing its research capabilities.STEVEN UDVAR HAZYCHANTILLYVIRGINIA
SPACE SHUTTLESPACE SHUTTLE DISCOVERYSTS 103The primary objective of STS-103 was the Hubble Servicing Mission 3A. STS-103 had four scheduled Extravehicular Activity (EVA) days where four crew members worked in pairs on alternating days to renew and refurbish the telescope.
NASA officials decided to move up part of the servicing mission that had been scheduled for June 2000 after three of the telescope’s six gyroscopes failed. Three gyroscopes must be working to meet the telescope’s very precise pointing requirements, and the telescope’s flight rules dictated that NASA consider a “call-up” mission before a fourth gyroscope failed.
