Description:
On April 25, 1990, the Hubble Space Telescope was deployed! <br/><br/>Hubble is famous for taking some of the most amazing deep-space photos ever. It hitched a ride to space on the space shuttle Discovery with mission STS-31. Also on board were astronauts Charles Bolden, Loren Shriver, Bruce McCandless, Steven Hawley and Kathryn Sullivan. The crew used a Canadian-built robotic arm to deploy Hubble from the shuttle's cargo bay while they were orbiting 332 nautical miles above the Earth. No one knew it at the time, but Hubble wouldn't be taking any pretty pictures anytime soon. When Hubble took its first photos almost a month after it was deployed, the pictures were out of focus because of a flaw in its mirror. Thankfully, the problem was fixable, and astronauts successfully repaired it in 1993.

_shredding-the-oregon-sand-dunes-on-the-2022-yamaha-yfz450r.webp "ATV Rider testing the YFZ450R in the dunes of Winchester Bay.<br/><br/>A sport quad is the best way to experience Oregon’s coastal dunes.<br/><br/>In case you missed it, we already posted our dune ride review of the 2022 Yamaha YFZ450R. Now we want you to experience some of the fun we had riding the YFZ450R with Yamaha and factory Yamaha ATV racer Dustin Nelson. The coastal sand dunes that reside next to the small seaport village of Winchester Bay, Oregon, was our playground. Off-road video guru Ray Gauger shot this amazing footage of the event, and our own digital wizard, Mark Williams, assembled it into this short clip.<br/><br/>If you’ve never been to Winchester Bay, you’re going to want to add it to your bucket list after watching this. Unlike most sand dune OHV locations in other states, Winchester Bay has actual trails that wind through the lower-elevation seagrass and the pine tree-covered peaks of the dunes. The trails venture into the trees with high sandy banks, hairpin twists, and some narrow sections that just cannot be navigated in a side-by-side.<br/><br/>Many will tell you that the best way to experience Winchester Bay is by attending DuneFest, a massive annual gathering of off-roaders that happens every August. And we agree. But on this particular midweek visit, we pretty much had the entire dune system to ourselves.<br/><br/>Enjoy the video!<br/><br/>Full story here: https://www.atvrider.com/story/videos/watch-yamaha-yfz450r-dune-ride-winchester-bay-video/<br/><br/>Video Credit: Ray Gauger videographer / Mark Williams editing")
