HOUSTON, May 13 (UPI) -- U.S. space shuttle Atlantis docked with the Hubble Space Telescope Wednesday about 350 statute miles above the Australian coast.
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration said contact between the space telescope and the shuttle's robotic arm occurred at 1:14 p.m. EDT. The telescope was latched to a high-tech, "lazy Susan" device known as the Flight Support System for the duration of the servicing work.
