Hubble’s Servicing Mission 1

Shortly after the Hubble Space Telescope was deployed in 1990, the observatory's primary mirror was discovered to have an aberration that affected the clarity of the telescope's early images.
Fortunately, Hubble, orbiting 353 miles (569 km) above the surface of the Earth, was the first telescope designed to be visited in space by astronauts to perform repairs, replace parts, and update its technology with new instruments.
Servicing Mission 1, launched in December 1993, was the first opportunity to conduct planned maintenance on the telescope. In addition, new instruments were installed and the optics of the flaw in Hubble's primary mirror was corrected.

Joe Biden is *NOT* president elect, votes have to be certified then they go to the electoral college, democrats are trying to rush the election while they have congress.
YouTube said they are going to put ads on all channels, if a channel is not ads friendly why would they put ads on a channel but not monetize it? They may have to start monetizing all channels!!!
