STS-31 (Space Transportation System-31) var Discoverys 10. rumfærge-mission.
Opsendt 24. april 1990 og vendte tilbage den 29. april 1990.
Hovedformålet med missionen var at sætte Hubble-rumteleskopet i kredsløb.
Teleskopet havde en fejl der blev repareret på den senere STS-61 mission.
Efterfølgende har der løbende været service missioner til hubble: STS-82, STS-103, STS-109 og den sidste hubble-mission med rumfærgerne er STS-125 planlagt i sommeren 2008.

STS-41 Mission Insignia

This was the first time since January 1986 that there was a Shuttle on each pad, which are separated by 1.6 miles. Discovery, carrying a five-member crew and the Hubble Space Telescope, lifted off at 8:34 a.m. EDT, April 24. Columbia, with its Astro-1 observatory, is scheduled for launch in May.
STS-36 Mission Insignia
STS-31 shuttle mission flight insignia. The mission insignia for NASA's STS-31 mission features the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) in its observing configuration against a background of the universe it will study. The cosmos includes a stylistic depiction of galaxies in recognition of the contribution made by Sir Edwin Hubble to our understanding of the nature of galaxies and the expansion of the universe. The STS-31 crew points out that is it in honor of Hubble's work that this great observatory in space bears his name. The depicted Space Shuttle trails a spectrum symbolic of both the red shift observations that were so important to Hubble's work and new information which will be obtained with the HST. Encircling the art work, designed by the crew, are the names of its members.
The STS-31 crew of five included (left to right) Charles F. Bolden, pilot; Steven A. Hawley, mission specialist; Loren J. Shriver, commander; Bruce McCandless, mission specialist; and Kathryn D. Sullivan, mission specialist. Launched aboard the Space Shuttle Discovery on April 24, 1990 at 8:33:51am (EDT), the primary payload was the Hubble Space Telescope. This was the first flight to use carbon brakes at landing.
- The five astronaut crew members for the STS-31 mission chose a busy night sky scene as a background for their portrait. Loren J. Shriver (center front) is mission commander. Other crew members are (left to right), Charles F. Bolden Jr., pilot; Steven A. Hawley, Bruce McCandless II, and Kathryn D. Sullivan, all mission specialists. The Hubble Space Telescope, depicted in the upper left of the background scene, was deployed by Discovery’s crew on April 25, 1990.
