Examples of measurementerrors in the news are the Hubble Telescope which had incorrect dimensions used in its lensconstruction. This was not discovered until Hubble was released into space. Later, the lens wascorrected to make Hubble useful for its intended purpose. Figure 3 shows tragic results ofcalibration error.
