Well…if you are a science/astronomy nerd like I am, you must have had concern when the Hubble went down a month ago and everything they tried to get it running failed….but the smart men and women at NASA kept at it and just yesterday they switched the telescope to a backup system and it fired right back up and is running like normal….and these people figured all this out with the telescope out of reach over 500 miles in space…and if they couldn’t get it working, Hubble would have become just another piece of space junk since there is no spacecraft that could get to it and stabilize it so spacewalks could be done to fix it….but I think we who have enjoyed the science and beauty that the telescope has provided over the past almost 30 years have to get ready to let it go…after all, it is 90′s technology that has a fixed life and it will die at some point…but I hope it’s not before the James Webb Space telescope is launched next year…it would be so damn cool to have two great scopes in the sky at one time and have them work together to do things that they can’t alone…fingers crossed…
