The same day that NASA Administrator Michael Griffin announced from Goddard Space Flight Center the astronauts selected for the final shuttle mission to perform work on the Hubble Space Telescope, the crew met the news media at the Johnson Space Center. Following the press briefing, the members posed for this group portrait. From left to right are astronauts K. Megan McArthur, Michael T. Good, Gregory C. Johnson, Scott D. Altman, John M. Grunsfeld, Michael J. Massimino, and Andrew J. Feustel. Altman commanded the final space shuttle mission to Hubble, and Johnson served as pilot for his initial spaceflight. Mission specialists included veteran spacewalkers Grunsfeld and Massimino and first-time space fliers Feustel, Good and McArthur.
