6:20 PM, 10/30/08, Update: Hubble servicing mission delayed to at least May, possibly longer
A shuttle mission to service and upgrade the Hubble Space Telescope, originally scheduled for mid October and then delayed to at least Feburary by trouble with an electronic component aboard the observatory, will be delayed until next May at the earliest because of problems preparing a replacement unit for flight, officials said today.
A detailed update on the status of the Hubble mission, as well as an upcoming space station assembly flight, will be posted following a 6:30 p.m. EDT news conference with senior shuttle program managers.
