The Good, The Bad & The Hubbled

Stories from the front lines of a wild ride

After 30 years of being associated with the Hubble Space Telescope I’ve picked up some fun stories. I’ve also learned a few things about the sometimes fine line between success and failure in complex, rapidly changing, high stakes times.

His Hubble image, the Pillars of Creation, was chosen by Time Magazine as among the 100 most influential photographs in history.
