Hubble is amazing. I hope that some private entity / billionaire will take it over, upgrade, and continue. Soon, NASA, in its infinite wisdom, will stop supporting it. NASA has already spent tens of billions on the next orbiting telescope, and it is mainly infrared.

Here is another, very recent Hubble photo. What I find so cool, amazing, is that this galaxy in the photo just happens to be in the position that Hubble, in its position, can get such a view, like we are over the galaxy at this moment. Enjoy.
