When did Hubble break down? Just when the controversy over its ownership
started.

I say Hubble is not only alive and well but probably looking out at the
Stars right now. Even if it isn't it is in a Geosycronous orbital path at
96,000 miles above the Earth. Trust me - I know!

Geosynchronous orbit is about 22.5K miles and the Hubble is in low earth
orbit (around 300 miles or so). Chandra flies in an elliptical orbit
roughly close to your 96K mile reference. .Is that what you are referring
to?

This means that at the current rate of decay - it will fall to Earth in
about 2,000 Years.

Nope.

Now isn't it nice for the well informed President of the United States to
waist all our time in telling us that it will fall down on Earth but not
when? Yes it is -
because he just wants all of us non US Hivers to believe that Hubble is
Dead!

Well I say that someone soon is going to be up there in a non US Space
Craft (maybe mine) and they are going to say "turn off the propulsion
because I am
going to fix it" wait a minute..didn't that thing move yesterday? Why yes
it did. Well maybe just the propulsion is working on this dam thing.

Ohtay.

It doesn't work that well anyways since there is absolutely nothing wrong
with the International Hubble Telescope and if you US Hivers don't stop
calling a
United States Telescope I am going to drag your sorry ass into the world
Court and then you might even see a fair trial for once for a US Citizen!

LOL.

I am thinking you know Guth.
