Hubble telescope will be repaired on September 11, 2008

According to the US Aeronautics and Aeronautics Agency, on September 11, 2008, it was chosen for the group of astronauts to fly up to the Hubble telescope space. They will replace the failed conversion dials, install a new set of batteries and more complete observation tools.

After the shuttle shuttle Columbia accident in February 2003, Mr. Sean O'Keele, Director of NASA at that time decided to give up the mission to launch manned spacecraft onto this famous telescope. Because this is a risky thing for the crew.

Three years later, Mr. O'Keele's successor, Michael Griffin, insisted that he will try to repair Hubble glasses. After the shuttle flights and the construction of the International Space Station resumed, Mr. Griffin was able to confirm at the end of last October that the Hubble telescope would be extended.

However, the selection on September 11, 2008 is not certain. When the 2007 flight schedule has not been completed, this date is still likely to change.
