NASA canceled a contract with TRW Corporation for the Orbital Maneuvering Vehicle, also known as the Space Tug, a spacecraft intended to lift satellites (specifically the Hubble Space Telescope and a proposed X-ray telescope) into higher orbit. The reason given for the cancellation was recent budget pressure facing NASA. (WSJ, Jun 8/90; W Times, Jun 8/90; Sp News, Jun 11-17/90; NASA Release 90-78)
