Telescope.

Before liftoff, we asked STS-82 astronaut Steve Smith to give us a guided tour of this
mission. You can read and hear Steve tell us all about his first spacewalks ever,
the exciting new scientific instruments he and his crew have installed
on the telescope, and how this mission will help us better
understand the universe -- plus a few fun surprises.
