Hubble gets upgraded camera during spacewalk repair
Two astronauts on Atlantis completed a risky 7½ hour spacewalk to install a new wide field camera in the Hubble Space Telescope. They also replaced a data unit and connected a docking ring, advancing plans for five more high risk repairs. The $132 million instrument will let scientists peer deeper, about 500 to 600 million years after creation, and the old camera heads to the Smithsonian.
