In order to go where man has gone before, 30 years ago, the Hubble is has been retired before it's time. No more shuttle maintainence visits. NASA has decided to let it degrade on it's own and fall into the Pacific. That also means the $200 million worth of upgrades already built and waiting for installation will be junk.
The greatest telescope ever built and one of the most successful scientific programs is finished. But Congress can over ride NASA and insist the Hubble be maintained. I say it's time to write them and let them know it should be kept up.
