STS-125 Mission T-Shirt
Our STS-125 Mission T-Shirt is screen printed on a Hanes Heavyweight 100% Cotton T-Shirt. It features the official STS-125 emblem, as well as a colorful, elaborate design, which includes the Space Shuttle Atlantis, the Hubble Telescope, and an Astronaut on an EVA.
STS-125 has been delayed until at least May 2009 to prepare a second data handling unit replacement for the telescope. The mission will be flown by Space Shuttle Atlantis.
Atlantis will carry two new instruments to the HST, in addition to a replacement Fine Guidance Sensor, six new gyroscopes and batteries to allow the telescope to continue to function at least through 2013. The crew will also install a new thermal blanket layer to provide improved insulation, and a "Soft-Capture mechanism" to aid in the safe de-orbiting of the spacecraft by an unmanned spacecraft at the end of its operational lifespan.
