Episode 21. Hubble Needs Glasses Fire Part 2

Happy New Years Eve from everyone at The Day's Dumpster Fire!

In this episode, that has absolutely nothing to do with New Years Eve, Ed finally remembers that he needed to finish off his part 2 of his Hubble Needs Glasses episode from weeks ago. That is exactly what this episode is about. He explores how a tiny defect barely visible to the human eye can cause a 2.4 meter to be perfectly ground imperfectly... whatever that means. 

Furthermore, he sheds some light on what the seven astronauts who went up in Hubble's Service Mission-1 had to go through to fit a very customer pair of glasses into it's eye-hole so that people on Earth can once and for all see just how magnificent this telescope is. 

So this episode isn't so much a dumpster fire in the traditional sense, but what Kara and Ed have deemed a "dumpster garden" where out of a complete mess of a situation, a win can come about.
