Astronauts Begin Spacewalk Work of HubbleRepairs of the Hubble Space Telescope began this morning as two Shuttle Astronauts, John Grunsfeld and Drew Feustel, left the Atlantis Shuttle to begin their work for the day. The entire spacewalk today is expected to take nearly seven hours to complete. It's a long day of work but at least the two will have spectacular views of Earth while they are working. Part of their work includes removing the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 and replace it with a new wide-field camera. The new camera will allow the telescope to take large-scale, clear and detailed photos over a wide range of colors.
