Default Stupid question about Hubble

Does Hubble perform observations while in direct sunlight (ie the
period of its orbit when it is not in the Earth's shadow.

If not, then a propulsion system like that of Orbital Recovery could
be used to change the Hubble orbit while Hubble was not being used (ie
when on the sunlit portion of its orbit).
