About this work
KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla. -- Workers in Hangar AandE remove the wrapping from around the Advanced Camera for Surveys, which is suspended by an overhead crane. Part of the payload on the Hubble Space Telescope Servicing Mission, STS-109, the ACS will increase the discovery efficiency of the HST by a factor of ten. It consists of three electronic cameras and a complement of filters and dispersers that detect light from the ultraviolet to the near infrared (1200 - 10,000 angstroms).
