Hitechno.com – Hubble Telescope Until the damage is reported, and NASA Trying to improve Space telescope That.
But even scientists have predicted that NASA will not be able to repair the telescope In a vacuum Hubble is broken.
This condition may be the end of the telescope’s life, but NASA confirms that there are several options for improving it.
The Hubble Telescope has been offline for nearly three weeks due to a major computer error.
The telescope, operated by NASA, the European Space Agency (ESA) and the Canadian Space Agency (CSA), has been observing the universe for more than 30 years.
Engineers at the space agency have taken various steps to wake it up and get it working again.
However, there is currently no way to successfully solve this space telescope problem.
Reported from Daily mailOn Monday (5/7/2021), the Hubble team found an error in the scientific instrument command and data handling (SI C&DH) section.
The current Hubble problem has led experts to speculate about the future of the telescope.
Even former NASA space shuttle pilot Clayton C. Anderson says he believes the Hubble is beyond repair.
Fermilab director and physicist Dan Lincoln share the same view, saying that could be the end of the Hubble story.
However, in its latest update on NASA’s Hubble status on June 30, the company said it was still working to resolve the issue.
NASA said it would take a week to review and update all operating procedures to switch to backup hardware.
This isn’t the first time Hubble has been in trouble. In 2008 the Hubble team made similar changes and was able to restore the telescope.
NASA undertook a service mission in 2009 to replace all SI C&DH units, including the default CU/SDF modules, with SI C&DH units currently in use.
Since then, Hubble has made more than 600,000 additional observations, more than 1.5 million over its lifetime.
In addition, NASA is currently working on a telescope that is said to be the successor to Hubble, namely James Webb Telescope.
The telescope is scheduled for launch in October.
However, experts expected the Hubble telescope to function even after the introduction of the James Webb telescope.
Will the Hubble Telescope be replaced soon after the operation of the James Webb Space Telescope? (Suara.com/ Lintang Siltya Utami).
