Two solar arrays were replaced with new and improved solar arrays during the successful First Servicing Mission on the Hubble Space Telescope. An electrical short and four solar array mechanical system anomalies occurred. After the flight servicing mission, the physical appearance and durability of the materials on the solar array and the physical position of hardware indicators were investigated. Evidence of micrometeoroid damage and the darkened silicone coatings were apparent.
