Wasn't this the same company that didn't know the difference between metric and British units of measure?


Nah.

That was a NASA/JPL (between the labs) problem.

I looked it up. It was Lockheed on the Mars orbiter/lander:

"The prime contractor for the mission, Lockheed Martin, measured the thruster firings in pounds even though NASA had requested metric measurements."

Was Lockheed the contractor on the Hubble deal as well?
