Caltech/JPL : In this spoof of old TV action shows, Sean Astin, Osa Wallander, and Betty White search for a way to help the Spitzer Space Telescope after it runs out of coolant. The video was produced with the assistance of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory.Spitzer ran out of coolant on May 15 and as the video suggests, some of the instruments on the observatory will still be able to operate normally.
