The first spectacular images from the newly installed Advanced Camera for Surveys on NASA's Hubble Space Telescope will be released at a press briefing Tuesday, April 30, 2002, at 1 p.m. EDT. The new camera was installed on Hubble by shuttle astronauts during the successful servicing mission in March, designated STS-109. The panoramic images dramatically demonstrate Hubble's increased ability to peer more deeply into the universe to make profound new discoveries.

Panelists will include Dr. Dave Leckrone, Hubble Project Scientist and Preston Burch, Hubble Project Manager
