ThrowbackThursday: First Hubble Servicing Mission
Astronaut Story Musgrave, anchored on the end of the Remote Manipulator System arm, prepares to be elevated to the top of the Hubble Space Telescope to install protective covers on the magnetometers. Astronaut Jeffrey Hoffman inside payload bay, assisted Musgrave with final servicing tasks on the telescope, wrapping up five days of spacewalks in December 1993.
