Many astronomers are calling for Hubble to be refurbished and its mission extended to 2020. Here are some of it's best pictures. This is a GrokNews Entry: (what is grok?)The Best of HubbleGrok Headline matches for The Best of HubbleThe end of Hubble?The end of Hubble? 02/01/2005 09:18 PM The Hubble Space Telescope (HST) will probably die before 2010 due to insufficient financial resources to service it. There is no official announcement by NASA yet, but it is expected for 7 February 2005 during the presentation of the 2006 budget. (Sources: BBC, Space.com). So Long, HubbleSo Long, Hubble 01/17/2004 11:18 PM Hubble casualty of Bush space plan: Sometime in the future, we'll be mourning the poor Hubble Space Telescope. It was good while it lasted. The Hubble Space Telescope will be allowed to degrade and eventually become useless, as NASA changes focus to President Bush's plans to send humans to the moon, Mars and beyond, officials said Friday. NASA canceled all space shuttle servicing missions to the Hubble... Did you know that when the Hubble was first launched (then subsequently — and infamously — fixed), there was a program where amateur astronomers could submit proposals and, if they were accepted, could use the Hubble to test their own astronomy theories?

NASA has gave the go
ahead to fix the Hubble with a Robot. How in the hell are they going
to do that and have enough lift capacity to get it there all in one
launch. I know they went to Mars but getting a robot to fix Hubble has
me wondering if they can really pull this off. [BBC]<

Nasa chief Sean O'Keefe has asked for a firm mission proposal to be worked up in a year, after which a decision whether to proceed will be made. As discussed previously in this thread, it looked like NASA didn't want to devote the resourses necessary to maintain the 14 year old telescope.
