Summary:

The Hubble Space Telescope, launched in April 1990, contains two primary on-board computers. In the past, modifications to the flight software have been accomplished via patches to the on-board executable image (performed while software is executing) or via halt and reload of the computer memory with a new flight software version. This paper describes a method of reloading flight software with a new software version while continuing the onboard execution of a reduced set of spacecraft payload functions.
