Another lecture in IHMC's award winning lecture series. http://www.ihmc.us In May 2009 a team of astronauts flew to the Hubble Space Telescope on space shuttle Atlantis. On their 13 day mission and over the course of 5 spacewalks they completed an extreme makeover of the orbiting observatory. They installed the Wide Field Camera- 3, the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph, repaired the Advanced Camera for Surveys and the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph, as well as a number of maintenance activities. The Hubble Space Telescope story has been a fascinating study in public policy, engineering, ethics, and science. For the first time on orbit the Hubble has a full complement of instruments capable of performing state-of-the-art observations from the near infra-red to the ultraviolet end of the ...
Astronaut John Grunsfeld, who flow on the shuttle five times and helped service the Hubble Space Telescope on three of those mission, speaks with Miles O'Brien about his memories of the Space Shuttle program.
After a storied career with 5 spaceflights (including three trips to fix the Hubble Space Telescope), NASA astronaut John Grunsfeld now helms the space agency's scientific missions. He helps shepherd billions of dollars' worth of technology through testing to make sure it can survive and function in the rigors of space. See Grunsfeld describe his journey from the South Side of Chicago to orbit, why spaceflight is so addictive, and what it takes to be a Hubble repairman.

NASA astronaut John M. Grunsfeld is interviewed by video blogger Zadi Diaz (www.epicfu.com) as part of PBS's coverage of the 2009 Television Critics Association Press Tour (Aug 1-2, 2009). Grunsfeld is part of the October, 2009 NOVA episode "Hubble's Amazing Rescue." For more: http://www.pbs.org/nova/hubble In the spring of 2009, NASA sent a shuttle crew to service the Hubble Space Telescope for the last time. From training to launch, NOVA presents the inside story of the mission and the extraordinary challenges faced by the rescue crew.
On September 2, 2015, NASA Astronaut and Associate Administrator for NASA's Science Mission Directorate, Dr. John Grunsfeld, spoke as part of the High Altitude Observatory's 75th Anniversary celebration—Past, Present, and Future: A celebration of seventy-five years of solar science excellence. More information about HAO's 75th Anniversary celebration can be found here: https://www2.hao.ucar.edu/HAO-75th-anniversary Dr. John Grunsfeld joined NASA's Astronaut Office in 1992. He is veteran of five space shuttle flights, and visited Hubble three times during these missions. He also performed eight spacewalks to service and upgrade the observatory. He logged more than 58 days in space on his shuttle missions, including 58 hours and 30 minutes of spacewalk time. John first flew to space aboa...
John Grunsfeld is deputy director of the Space Telescope Science Institute and a former NASA astronaut. In this role, he flew on three of the five Servicing Missions, carrying out repairs and upgrades to the Hubble Space Telescope. In this video, he talks about his experiences working hundreds of kilometres above the Earth's surface. The interview was carried out at the "Science with the Hubble Space Telescope -- III" conference in Venice, Italy, in October 2010.

It was the third spacewalk in as many days for the shuttle Atlantis crew, expected to be the most challenging ever performed because of the unprecedented camera repairs. Astronauts have never tried to take apart a science instrument at the 19-year-old obser...
