TL;DR Summary

NASA has announced that the Hubble Space Telescope will resume its science operations after experiencing a gyroscope glitch. The telescope entered safe mode on November 19 due to faulty gyroscope readings, but was brought back online multiple times before encountering further issues. Despite the setbacks, NASA plans to restore Hubble for science operations with all three gyros, operating them in a higher-precision mode during observations. The observatory remains stable and in good health, and will continue its mission of capturing deep space images.
