The disappointment of an another gyro, and the disclosure that a reinforcement was broken left Hubble with just two completely utilitarian gyros.
This could have constrained controllers to work the telescope on only one, to expand the lifetimes of the two segments for whatever length of time that conceivable.
At the time, the representative mission set out toward Hubble, Rachel Osten, stated: "The arrangement has dependably been to drop to 1-gyro mode when two remain. There isn't much contrast somewhere in the range of 2 and 1, and it purchases bunches of additional watching time, which the astro network needs frantically."
