While the gyro on the Hubble telescope is not affected

July 12, 2017 by James Ashley

While the gyro on the Hubble telescope is not affected by the issues, the "new" gyro on the Hubble telescope is affected by the gyro on the Hubble Space Telescope. The telescope is located in an orbit over the North Pole, but is currently orbiting about 100,000 times from Earth. Therefore, the Hubble telescope has to be in a position where it will not be affected by problems with the telescope's primary gyros.

Since Hubble Space Telescope is currently being used primarily for astronomy, there is some concern about the fate of the two primary gyros that have been missing over the past several years. The two gyros were built with two different designs of main and secondary gyros, which allowed for the use of a single front-mounted primary gyro. Therefore, the two primary gyros on the Hubble Space Telescope are not affected by these issues. The Hubble Space Telescope is currently in a "safe mode," which means that the Hubble Space Telescope will not be affected by any of the issues.

"This is unfortunate, as the Hubble Space Telescope is a very important tool in our future astronomy efforts. We can't wait for the next generation of telescopes to become our primary instruments," said James Webb, president of the United States Space Administration (USSA), in a statement.

NASA also announced that on Friday, NASA planned to put the Hubble telescope into a "safe mode" until Saturday morning. For the Hubble telescope, there will be no immediate change or risk to the observatory, or to the science process.

"This is a very important milestone for all of us," said Scott Nye, principal investigator for the SETI Institute. "Now that we have successfully launched our first interstellar space telescope, we have completed a major step in our effort to discover other worlds. The Hubble Space Telescope is a great example of how science can move forward from the dark matter and other dark energy sources to a future of a truly wide-ranging and intelligent life. This observatory has the capability to provide the critical tools necessary for the future. We look forward to meeting this important challenge and we look forward to working with Hubble Space Telescope team members to help us accomplish this exciting mission."
