Description

Three sets of cap assemblies for the Hubble Space Telescope's Solid State Recorder (SSR), each comprising a silver-colored cap with three black caps. Marked on the silver caps as "GD2033239, SN001F," "GD2033239, SN002F," and "4178456-501, S/N007F." Includes their plastic bags with affixed deaccession labels. In overall fine condition. The HST was originally deployed with mechanical, reel-to-reel data recorders; these were replaced in the 1990s with solid state recorders, offering faster and more reliable storage with a greater capacity.
