Movie ID Title
<b>Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph </b>(STIS), the most versatile spectrograph ever to fly on Hubble, ceased operations in August 2004 due to the failure of its power supply. In order to restore STIS to operational status, astronauts will perform a never-before-attempted on-orbit replacement of an electronics board inside STIS’s main electronics box. On Earth this operation is relatively simple, but in space many challenges confront the astronauts as they work to replace the failed board including working to remove 111 tiny, non-captive screws with astronaut gloves. <p> <b>The Cosmic Origins Spectrograph </b> (COS) that will be added during Servicing Mission 4, and STIS are highly complementary and are very complimentary to each other providing scientists with a full set of spectroscopic tools for astrophysical research. The STIS instrument’s accomplishments include determining the atmospheric composition of an exoplanet as well as spectra and images at ultraviolet and visible wavelengths of the Universe from our solar system out to cosmological distances. </p><p><p><p><p><p>For complete transcript, click <a href='script_725_01.html'>here</a>. 10350 STIS Repair: The Quest for Renewed Exploration

Astronauts travel to NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center to prepare for Servicing Mission 4 to the Hubble Space Telescope. HST Servicing Mission Commander Scott Altman describes coming to Goddard and working with the flight hardware. <p>For complete transcript, click <a href='script_401_00.html'>here</a>. 10243 HST SM4 Crew Training at NASA Goddard
In planning for Servicing Mission 4 to Hubble, crew members divide their time between NASA’s Johnson Space Center, Houston, working underwater on a Hubble mock-up to simulate the effects of weightlessness, and NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Maryland, where they practice scheduled mission tasks on a Hubble mock-up inside a large clean room facility. Many Goddard engineers are trained divers. These engineers work along side the astronauts while in the Neutral Buoyancy Lab to aid in their training. This underwater experience helps HST engineers understand what the astronauts need as they work together to refine tools and procedures to service Hubble. <p>For complete transcript, click <a href='script_410_00.html'>here</a>. 10242 Goddard Space Flight Center Divers
A team at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center designs and builds the special tools and aids astronauts need when they service the Hubble Space Telescope. Engineers describe working with the astronaut crew and developing tools to meet specific challenges as well as inventing new tools that will help NASA astronauts well into the future. <p>For complete transcript, click <a href='script_412_02.html'>here</a>. 10240 CATS: Crew Aids and Tools
