ESA Bulletin 118 (May 2004)
Read about the 'middle-aged' Hubble Space Telescope which, after fourteen years in orbit, continues to play a major role in astronomical research, and is undoubtedly one of the most important and prolific space astronomy missions of all time. Also visit the new deep-space station "Cebreros" in Spain; meet "Double Star"; find out how Earth Observation data is prepared; and read about space technologies, export control and intellectual property rights.
