“We’ve Never Done Anything Like Any of This” – A Project Engineer
Son of Hubble
The Hubble Telescope has been the most amazing, gratifying, useful thing of modern science. Off to a rough start with lenses imprecisely ground (an error resulting in one part of the team using meters, the other using inches. Imagine that.). But all was well once an equally amazing rescue mission was launched, installing “contact lenses” on the telescope, with perfect results as an outcome.
I hit the Hubble web site and similar sites regularly, still amazed at the science and the beauty just waiting for you almost every day.
