    The failed unit had been temporarily stored on an ORU site on the MBS, then moved to ESP-2 by the STS-133 crew, [12] then returned to earth by the STS-135 crew July 13, 2011. A failed Control Moment Gyroscope was installed on FRAM-5 from August 13, 2007 during STS-118 [ 13 ] until February 13, 2008 when it was returned by STS-122 .

    An orbital replacement unit or orbital replaceable unit is a modular component of spacecraft that can be replaced upon failure either by robot or by extravehicular activity. The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) was designed with 70 such parts, [ 1 ] including scientific instruments and limited-life items such as batteries.

    During the late 80s, Paré asked a local Morinville, Alberta resident, Jeannette Bachand, for some recipes to include in an upcoming cookbook. The first of Bachand's recipes were published in 1989 after Bachand called Company's Coming for a specific recipe for green tomatoes. There were no recipes for such a thing and was called by Paré for ...

    Hubble was designed to accommodate regular servicing and equipment upgrades while in orbit. Instruments and limited life items were designed as orbital replacement units. [105] Five servicing missions (SM 1, 2, 3A, 3B, and 4) were flown by NASA Space Shuttles, the first in December 1993 and the last in May 2009. [106]
