I personally hope NASA can figure out a way to service the
Hubble telescope. It is more important than any one piece
of the International space station, so if one flight has to
be cancelled, let it be one to the International space
station rather than the one to Hubble, especially
considering that we already have $200 million worth of new
instruments to add to Hubble that have already been bought
and paid for.
How about saving the servicing money and the components and keep them for a
lunar version of Hubble ? Is there something urgent to be discovered that
absolutely needs to be done this decade ?
There is *NO* point in making a moon version of Hubble. No point at all.
