STS-31: Hubble Space Telescope Post Launch Press Conference from Kennedy Space Center

This video presents a post-launch press conference on the STS-31 Hubble Space Telescope. Dick Young, Kennedy Space Center Public Affairs, introduces the panel. The panel consists of Robert Sieck, Kennedy Space Center Launch Director, and George T. Sassen, Director Shuttle Engineer. The STS-31 launch was accomplished with very few problems. Terminal count was started and then stopped at 31 seconds because the software sensed that a valve was not positioned correctly. The valve was positioned correctly, the count was resumed, and the launch was carried out safely and successfully. George T. Sassen explains, in detail, how the problem was corrected.
