The Trouble with Telstar by John Berryman - Project Gutenberg edit / delete

SF short story about servicing a satellite. Some neat parallels with the Hubble servicing mission. (And yay, someone's started scanning early Analog for PG! I have a few UK issues from the same timeframe, if anyone's interested...)
