Hubble is fully operational once again
In the history and exploration of space, only a few missions have broken records in terms of ruggedness and endurance. The Opportunity rover is undisputedly the champion on Mars. It was originally designed to operate for 90 days, but it has been in operation for over 15 years! The 2001 Mars Odyssey is the undisputed champion in orbit around Mars. It has been operational for 20 years, despite being originally designed to run only 90 days.
The longest-running mission in deep space is Voyager 1, which has spent 44 years exploring our Solar System and beyond. In Earth orbit, however, the Hubble Space Telescope is the winner of the longest-running mission. The telescope has been fully operational again after a series of technical problems. Hubble has now completed 32 years of service with this latest restoration.
This issue started at 01:46 A.M. ET (10:46 PDT) on the 23rd of October, when NASA reported the venerated telescope was sending error code, which indicated the loss a specific message synchronization. The Hubble instruments use this message to correctly respond to data requests or commands. Two days later, the same error codes appeared. This indicated multiple loss of synchronization message and caused Hubble to enter a safe mode.
