The Hubble Legacy: A Collegiate Case Study
USA Today Education, in collaboration with NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, brings the final section of a six-part case study, which explores the human ingenuity, vision, and expertise represented in the still-evoloving story of the Hubble Space Telescope. The interviews that follow are based on the Critical Inquiry section of the case study, which was composed by the subject matter experts at NASA.
Astronaut Kathryn Thornton and NASA engineer Russ Werneth look back at the challenges and triumphs of the Hubble Space Telescope servicing missions. With footage from Servicing Mission 1 and the recent Servicing Mission 4, Thornton and Werneth look back at the problems, solutions, and legacy of Hubble.
