Scientific paper

The accomplishments of the Space Shuttle Endeavor's mission to repair the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) are discussed. Images are presented that were taken with the HST Faint Object Camera before and after the installation of the Corrective Optics Space Telescope and Axial Replacement. Images are also presented that were taken with the old Wide Field and Planetary Camera (WFPC) and its replacement, WFPC 2. Comparisons between before-repair and after-repair images clearly indicate that the mission was a success.
