Ground-based telescopes can match HST in some ways using adaptive optics,
but there are some things HST does (such as UV) that ground-based
telescopes will never be able to do.

Don't forget loooooooonnnng exposure times.


Nope. Nobody does single long exposures anyway - that happens later on in
the computer. And ground-based telescopes routinely do several-hour integrations.
