Hubble repair mission?

Yeah. I like that one. But I feel it is a kind of a last hurrah for
something of the past. In a few years the Hubble space telescope will
be gone. On the other hand the Falcon launches, though being less
spectacular in the short term, have the potential to change our
relationship with space to a greater extent in the long term. At least
that is my point of view. But I do really look forward to the
Hubble repair mission.
