Celebrating Hubble’s 35th Anniversary
This month marks an anniversary of galactic proportions. On April 24, NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope celebrates 35 years in orbit. Since its deployment, Hubble has changed our understanding of the universe with its amazing images. Today, it continues to inspire the world thanks to five NASA servicing missions. NASA’s Glenn Research Center proudly assisted in each of those missions by testing damaged insulation, determining why it degraded in space, and recommending replacement materials. Join me in celebrating this marvel of engineering and scientific discovery.
