Description: Launched by Space Shuttle Discovery in 1990, Hubble has circled Earth more than 97,000 times and provided more than 4,000 astronomers access to the stars not possible from inside Earth's atmosphere. Hubble has helped answer some of science's key questions and provided images that have awed and inspired the world. The STS-125 mission will return the space shuttle to the Hubble Space Telescope for one last visit before the shuttle fleet retires in 2010. This detailed coverage of the last servicing mission to the Hubble Space Telescope covers training, launch, and return to Earth with never-before-seen photographs of astronauts working 300 miles above Earth, plus spectacular images of other galaxies, taken by the Hubble Space Telescope.
