Were you there during the repair phase? What an amazing thing that was.

I was actually working on Space Station at the time. Used to pop into the Hubble control room.

However, when I was at JPL, I was on the mission control team that flew the Magellan spacecraft to the planet Venus. (The same control room that is currently controling the Mars rovers). I also had the privilege of being in the Voyager control room for Neptune encounter.

Sorry, kinda bragging here. :-) I have worked in the US space program for more than 27 years now.
