COSMIC MESSAGE

In December of 1990, the Space Shuttle Columbia carried an array of astronomical telescopes high above the Earth's obscuring atmosphere. These telescopes, known as UIT, HUT, WUPPE, and BBXRT, observed the Universe at ultraviolet and x-ray wavelengths. They are seen here in Columbia's payload bay against a spectacular view of the constellation Orion.
