Hubble’s Servicing Mission 1

The video discusses the Hubble Space Telescope, highlighting its engineering marvel and astronomical significance. Initially, Hubble faced challenges due to a flawed primary mirror, leading to public skepticism. NASA prepared for a critical servicing mission, training astronauts to repair and upgrade Hubble. The mission was successful, correcting optical issues and enhancing Hubble's capabilities. This restored confidence in NASA and allowed Hubble to capture remarkable images, solidifying its legacy in space exploration.

What was the impact of the spherical aberration discovered in Hubble's primary mirror?

Explain the role of the corrective Optic Space Telescope axial replacement (Costar) in Hubble's functionality.
