Teledyne Deploys On Hubble

Thousand Oaks-based Teledyne Technologies announced this morning that the firm's subsidiary, Teledyne Scientific & Imaging, has deployed an infrared imaging sensor in the Hubble Space Telescope. The firm's infrared sensor was installed in the Hubble last week by the Space Shuttle, as part of a repair of the telecope's Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS). Teledyne said that the new IR sensor means that it has imaging technologies in three of the six Hubble Space Telecope instruments. Teledyne develops electronic components, instrumentation, aerospace components, and other products.
