NASA can really suck sometimes

Not to sound cynical, but the Senior Senator from MD has already saved Hubble once, IIRC, so I’m not so sure it will stay cut. Not out of any sense of scientific history, or exploration, but to keep the pork barrel rolling. :dubious:

Not that I don’t want Hubble saved, mind you, I just wish it would be for the right reasons.

Even if they don’t save Hubble, the
James Webb Space Telescope is scheduled to be launched in 2011, and will be a large improvment over Hubble - the James Webb Telescope has a main mirror more than twice the diameter of the mirror on the Hubble scope.
