But it should be remembered the Spitzer Space Telescope was the first telescope in history to detect a planet outside of our own solar system. That was a really big achievement.

True- it is still a great telescope- no doubt- much better than my pair of binoculars lol. (I acfually have a camera lens that is more powerful, about 800mm, but still just a pup compared to the telescopes 😆
