What else is happening at the Space and Rocket Center?

On Tuesday, Feb. 15, 2022, Marshall Space Flight Center volunteers celebrated as workers re-installed the W.U.P.P.E telescope to the Astro Cruciform. 

The crew had waited years for that moment and countless amounts of hours went into hunting down the parts needed for the spacecraft, as well as, installing those parts.  

These particular parts are the same space lab pallets that were a part of Astro 1 and Astro 2.

The shuttle is one of three telescopes sitting in the city of Huntsville. Astro One launched aboard the space shuttle Columbia in 1980, which was dedicated to studying astrophysics. Astro Two launched aboard the space shuttle endeavor in March of 1995.

Make sure to make plans to visit the spacecraft while it is still in Huntsville before it makes its way up North to the Smithsonian in Washington DC.
