ACS-Repair Status

The ACS team will post late-breaking information here regarding the status of the ACS repair (ACS-R) to be conducted during Hubble Servicing Mission 4 (currently planned for August 2008). A recent STScI Newsletter article (PDF) gives a nice overview of the ACS repair. Technical information and development status are available at the ACS-R official web site
