NASA s Hubble Space Telescope is entering a new operational mode designed to bypass a pesky gyroscope glitch that has repeatedly halted its science work.
The Hubble Space Telescope will soon go into one-gyroscope mode, a move that will decrease the iconic observatory s productivity but give it margin for the future.
The venerable Hubble Space Telescope, which has revolutionized astronomical discovery since its launch in 1990, will ease into retirement with a scaled-back observing schedule, NASA officials said Tuesday.
