finally, in 1990, the hubble space telescope was carefully packed into the space shuttle discovery. as discovery reached the correct altitude, the telescope was released. the cargo bay doors were opened to vent any trapped oxygen, and the telescope was lifted out of the bay, its solar arrays deployed. hubble was then disconnected from the shuttles power supply, and its own batteries were activated, all part of a meticulously planned and executed launch. during this process, the telescope was placed in \safe mode\ to protect against hardware failures. unfortunately, a major issue soon became apparent. two months after launch, the images sent back were blurry and out of focus. -windows to the universe: revolutions in astronomy\nwhat problem did the hubble space telescope face after its launch?\nthe images it made were blurry and out of focus.\nits instruments were damaged by space debris.\nits solar panels failed to deploy properly.\nit was unable to maintain a stable orbit.
