What the VFA, that has been asked about a couple of times (checked acronyms)?

LGA is still operational, but the cap might provide some extra thermal margin. Ground still discussing.
Ground gives a go to put the cap back on.

...a great closeout speech for the whole team on doing the impossible.
I'm sure I thought, and am pretty sure I posted here when I read the mission plan, that this was totally nuts and they'd never get all this stuff done. I'm again impressed by the ability of the entire NASA team to pull off what sounded like an impossible task.

ground deciding that a cover is to be put on the LGA (still functioning) end to ensure better thermal protection

I've copied the LGA diagram from the HST Cargo systems manual from L2. I'll post it here if Chris has no problem with it.

That's about right. I had every hope they could get ACS fixed, but was resigned to the fact from SM4_Engineer that it wasn't going to happen. I am so glad that they got everything done, including ACS and STIS (all those screws!). NASA has come through again. They truly did the impossible on this mission, and it sounds like they are putting the star back onto the tip of the sending unit to 'cap off' a great mission

Here are the pictures from the HST cargo systems manual available on L2. The first shows the protective cover, the second is a diagram of the LGA ORU. If anyone more familiar with these could shed some light, that'd be great. Chris if you are against these being in the public thread, feel free to delete this post.

John "Sorry Mr. Hubble"
[edit]... I think the "Hubble gremlins" have a weird sense of humor and wanted one last application of "Murphy's Law".
I should note for those not hearing audio, that Houston has assured John et al that the HST team has verified that the low gain antenna is working fine in receive, and they expect no problem with it.
