Hubble Saved

The seriously risky and highly important mission to save/rebuild the Hubble has been completed. I'm sure you have read about it by now, but basically it gave the Hubble three new/upgraded sensors to use with that big 'ol telescope and extended its life for another 10 years.

Bonus feature not much talked about? Attaching a hook to Hubble so that it can be recovered instead of burned up - because that is one very historically important telescope. It and the Mars rovers are probably the two most memorable space missions in my lifetime (sure, there has been the ISS - but it has not really done anything).
