With or without any future service the Hubble will some day go offline.
There have been a lot of ideas floating around as to what to do then. I was wondering if it could be possible to boost it to a LaGrange Point, rather than de-orbit it? Is an earth-moon point stable? I know the earth-sun point can be used as the SOHO satellite is there, but it would require a lot more fuel to reach. Apparently, recovery of the Hubble for placement in the Smithsonian is not possible, so I wanted to put an alternative idea out for discussion. Bruce |
