The #SpaceShuttle #Atlantis was launched on its final mission to service the #HubbleSpaceTelescope on #ThisDayInHistory in 2009. A groundbreaking science tool, #Hubble greatly exceeded an expected 15-year life — it was launched in 1990 and NASA hopes it will stay up until 2033.

👨‍🚀🚀 In 1984 #NASA #astronaut Bruce McCandless II became the first person in #history to fly untethered in #space using a nitrogen-powered jet pack.

He navigated over 90 meters (300 ft) from the #SpaceShuttle Challenger to demonstrate how #humans can move independently in a vacuum. The flight provided data on orbital maneuvering that helped engineers develop systems for satellite retrieval and repairs.

In 1984, a NASA Astronaut Flew Untethered. The Footage Is Magnificent and Also Anxiety Fuel

It's one of the most terrifying images in the history of space exploration.

NEW YORK Has a SPACE SHUTTLE… Obviously I Went

I went to New York… and somehow ended up surrounded by rockets.

From the Space Shuttle Space Shuttle Enterprise sitting inside the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum, to walking through the Hayden Planetarium, this turned into a full accidental space tour.

We’re talking real spacecraft, NASA hardware, cold war era tech, a literal shuttle parked on an aircraft carrier, and way more astronomy stuff than you’d expect in the middle of Manhattan.

No plan. Just walked in… and it kept escalating.

This is what happens when you go looking for “something to do” in New York and end up finding space. 🚀

One of the greatest projects in space exploration, the #HubbleSpaceTelescope was launched from #SpaceShuttle Discovery on #ThisDayInHistory in 1990. #Hubble has led to numerous advances in astrophysics, from calculating the age of the universe to finding supermassive black holes.
