The Hubble Space Telescope is one of the most amazing scientific instruments ever built, but it has a problem. Its gyros, which help it point at different targets in the sky, have been failing and causing it to shut down. NASA is trying to fix it, but there might be another way: a private servicing mission, funded by investors and carried out by NASA and SpaceX. This video explores the idea of this mission, its benefits, risks, and challenges, and how it could save the Hubble and its legacy.
