Telescope Reviews: Hubble's Amazing Rescue premieres on NOVA 10/13/09

Hubble's Amazing Rescue premieres on NOVA Tuesday, October 13, 2009

After nearly 20 years in space and hundreds of thousands of
spectacular images, the Hubble Space Telescope's gyroscopes
and sensors were failing, its batteries running down, and
some of its instruments were already dead.

NOVA weaves together the compelling story of this dangerous
12-day mission and its five pressure-filled spacewalks.
For two years leading up to launch, NOVA followed the mission
closely, with unprecedented access to every aspect of the
endeavor, from NASA's training facilities for flight
preparation to the historic mission itself.

Hubble's Amazing Rescue premieres
Tuesday, October 13, 2009 at 8PM ET/PT on PBS
(please check local listings).
