2.1 SM4 and the Installation of COS


COS will be installed into HST during Servicing Mission 4 (SM4), now scheduled for launch in September, 2008. NASA has indicated a firm commitment and desire to service HST, but many factors may change the launch date of SM4 or even preclude it. The availability of COS is obviously dependent on the success of SM4.
