The observatory contains ultraviolet and x ray telescopes that will capture images earth-bound observatories can't, due to interference from the earth's atmosphere. The video contains footage of the instrument being loaded on the shuttle, animations of anticipated images to be captured, and scenes of the SpaceLab Control Center at MSFC.
