Hubble, the sector’s 2nd maximum tough house telescope routinely entered secure mode on April 23, after receiving mistaken readings from certainly one of its gyroscopes. This glitch has led to a short lived suspension of all its science operations.
“Whilst in secure mode, science operations are suspended, Hubble’s tools are solid, and the telescope is in excellent well being,” NASA said.
The telescope confronted a equivalent factor in November 2023 as neatly, and it took NASA two weeks to renew its job again then. On the other hand, what’s extra unexpected is that the similar gyroscope that led to Hubble to pause ultimate yr is the only accountable this time.
