The nearly five-year-old Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) onboard the Hubble Space Telescope shut down at about 7:34 a.m. EST on Saturday, January 27, 2007, after a short circuit in the electrical system. This failure caused Hubble to go into ‘safe mode’. At about 2:00 a.m. on Sunday, one day later, the remaining Hubble instruments resumed their normal operations without ACS.
