Behind the Scenes: Hubble Operations at NASA Goddard

Operations Manager Dave Haskins (front) and Chief System Engineer for Flight Larry Dunham monitor a test of new procedures for the spacecraft on April 16, 2019. Among the new procedures being tested is an automated routine that can detect whether the observatory is going to lose lock on its target before it happens, thus allowing earlier recovery and more science to be gathered.
