quote from 1993 NY Times article:
http://www.nytimes.com/1993/11/28/magazine/hubble-jeopardy.html?sec=&spon=&pagewanted=4Hubble Jeopardy
By Dennis Overbye;
Published: Sunday, November 28, 1993
One screw in particular.... Known as the "A" latch, it's not just any screw; this one is a rod seven feet long. It holds the $100 million WFPC camera, about the shape and mass of a grand piano, in place on Hubble. There's a light to tell when the latch is about to settle in, and there are springs to keep it from jamming too far.
