AAS Issues Hubble Servicing Statement
AAS Calls Servicing Hubble Important for Astronomy, Urges NASA to Stick with the Decade Plan
“In releasing the statement, President Robert Kirshner stated, “I am personally very disappointed with NASA’s current plan not to service HST. You can be sure we will work with them to help realize the goals of astronomers as carefully worked out through our decade plan. We know that NASA is committed to doing the world’s best astronomy and servicing Hubble with the Shuttle is part of the best program.”
