About this work
Kennedy Space Center, Fla. — STS-103's Hubble servicing cargo is transferred from the payload changeout room at Launch Pad 39B to the payload bay in Space Shuttle Discovery. STS-103 is a "call-up" mission due to the need to replace and repair portions of the Hubble Space Telescope, including the gyroscopes that allow the telescope to point at stars, galaxies and planets.
