The Hubble Space Telescope has gone into safe and preemptive mode, in what has now become a disturbingly commonplace occurrence. Mission team members have not identified any other sources Problem.
NS The trouble started in the early hours of October 23, when an error code generated by the Hubble science instrument showed “certain sync messages are missing,” according to NASA. see press. These messages allow the tool to respond accurately to data requests and commands. Mission team members performed the necessary resets, allowing operations to resume the next morning.
But at 2:38 a.m. EDT on October 25, the same thing happened again, but this time the scientific instrument was missing a lot of sync messages. As a result, Hubble automatically entered safe mode, and has been in that state ever since. Scientific operations are currently suspended, but NASA The team insisted that Hubble’s instruments were “healthy” and that the space telescope would remain in safe mode throughout the investigation.
Launched in 1990, this telescope has provided stunning views of the universe and invaluable astronomical data. Joint Hubble mission between NASA and the European Space Agency should continue 15 years, but still holding on, despite occasional glitching. Current indications are that Hubble will remain operational until the end of 2020 Maybe until the thirties of this century.
The mission specialist tries to deal with the current situation — an obvious synchronization issue —By analyzing spacecraft data and system diagrams. They are also developing a new way to collect data from Hubble, a process that is expected to take at least a week. No timetable has yet been set for Hubble’s return to its regularly scheduled program. We have contacted NASA for more details, but no new information has been provided.

This latest incident marks the third time Hubble has entered safe mode in 2021, and we can only hope that, like all previous events, the spacecraft will wake up from its slumber. The situation seemed elusive on June 13 this year, when Hubble I’m in In safe mode due to power controller failure. NASA took a month to bring up Hubble ReturnWhich I finally managed to do By switching to a backup device. Hubble too I’m in In safe mode last March due to software error too in a 2008And 2018, And 2019.
awesome hub, We hope to see it again soon, but its successor, the Webb Space Telescope, is waiting in the wings. Next Generation Space Telescope Now Launched course On December 18, 2021 at 7:20 a.m. EDT.
again: NASA consultants stopped through a space telescope named homophobic officials.
