The Hubble Space Telescope has been with us for nearly two decades. In that time, its breathtaking images have captured peoples imaginations and its groundbreaking science has revealed some of the many secrets of our universe.

After five spacewalks by the STS-125 mission to repair Hubble, commander Scott "Scooter" Altman confirmed a successful release of the Hubble telescope from the Space Shuttle Atlantis.

As astronaut John Grunsfeld said at the end of the last Hubble spacewalk, Hubble isnt just a satellite. Its about humanitys quest for knowledge. Thanks to this fifth and final shuttle servicing mission, Hubble can continue that quest for years to come.

Hubble is a monumental achievement in its own right, but these new upgrades will take it to a whole new quantum level. I can hardly wait to see what it can do.

Off topic: what camera are they using, this is the most crisp video I've ever seen.

God, I hate it when people try to make speeches like the guy through most of it. Scooter, shut up.
