A television camera onboard the Space Shuttle Discovery shows the Hubble Space Telescope in the cargo bay of Discovery as the shuttle orbits the Earth Tuesday, Dec. 21, 1999. Space shuttle Discovery and its astronauts captured the broken Hubble Space Telescope on Tuesday for a service call 370 miles above Earth. Beginning Wednesday, the astronauts will make three spacewalks over three days to get the Hubble working again and to refurbish it.

Undated file photo of Bell Labs scientists Hendrik Schon and Zhenan Bao, shown here in their Murray Hill, N.J. lab, have fabricated molecular-scale organic transistors. When two Bell scientists invented the transistor in 1947, it was about the height of a 50-cent piece. It kicked off the digital age. Now, another Bell team has made a transistor from a single molecule, small enough to fit abut 10 million on the head of a pin.

This giant squid, one of the most spectacular, yet mysterious creatures in the world was netted last week in waters near Melbourne, Australia. It was exhibited at the Melbourne Museum, Wednesday, Feb. 7. 2001. Museum scientists say that the catch will give an insight to elusive details of the species. Museum spokesman Kate Milkins said the squid was 4 meters (12 feet) long, but including its two long feeding tentacles, which did not make it to the museum, it would likely measure 12 meters (36 feet).

Scientists are looking for new ways to fight a tiny parasite that has nearly wiped out all wild honeybees. Farmers in Maine use trucked-in bees to pollinate their crops. (AP Photo/Robert F.

Astronaut John W. Young, commander of the Apollo 16 lunar landing mission, jumps up from the lunar surface as he salutes the U.S. Flag at the Descartes landing site during the first Apollo 16 extravehicular activity (EVA-1). Astronaut Charles M. Duke Jr., lunar module pilot, took this picture. The Lunar Module (LM) "Orion" is on the left. The Lunar Roving Vehicle is parked beside the LM. The object behind Young in the shade of the LM is the Far Ultraviolet Camera/Spectrograph. Stone Mountain dominates the background in this lunar scene.
