NASA look to move Hubble mission to 2007

Quote:
NASA is evaluating the possibility of moving the final Hubble Space Telescope servicing mission from April 2008, to December 2007 - following a request to the Shuttle Program from the group in charge of the telescope.

STS-125, currently manifested to launch with Shuttle Discovery, will receive final authorisation next month, with plans for a unique LON (Launch On Need) rescue mission also in works.
