Another victory for Gropin’ Joe?
Biden thinks Hubble telescope is Fred Flintstone’s neighbor.
So I turned the Hubble Telescope around to look at Marie Osmond’s house.
So what?
Is that against the law or something?
It is?
I’ll be.
Dang it.
All I ever saw was roof shingles anyway.
Fortunately it will soon be replace by the James Webb telescope. Soon, meaning in about 250 years at a cost of 400 thousand trillion dollars. But it will be worth it.
One of the satellite missions my son worked on had a gyroscope failure. I think it resulted in turning the solar panels and antennas the wrong way. From what he said, it spun around in orbit for several years. Then one day, the signal from earth caught it and they were able to link comms up again.
Apparently they never gave up
They wiped all the pics of the mothership arriving?
Just like last time, our overlords presence must not be revealed.
Windows 3.0 ?
I’m so relieved!
The Hubble is in low earth orbit at 340 miles, according to NASA. I was shocked shocked I say to find that out— the ol’ Hubble is not flying thru Deep Space! Such disappointment to see all these gorgeous Nebula in the NASA Photo Gallery, but no true shots of the whole Big Blue Marble spinning in the vast Void— just cgi composites and artist renderings. Maybe too hard to turn around the cameras in LEO...Or maybe NASA does have some good earth shots they’re not sharing for some unexplained reasons. We the Gullible should be satisfied with Govt. cgi composites and Hollywood interpretations in movies and other “programming.”
“Unfortunately Hubbell Telescope has stopped”
I was also shocked—shocked I tell you—to learn that the Hubble’s main mission was not to prove the earth is flat, but to look beyond the earth. As if the whole point of our existence is—not to contemplate our own bums, but—to know our place in the universe. When of course, it’s not.
Typical response that adds nothing —but it did give you the opportunity to type ‘flat earth’ for no good reason. I have no idea what shape the earth is. If you are relying on the NASA photo gallery, neither do you. The earth is our home, and some of us would like to know Truth and not Sci-Fi Forevuh!
Space radiation, eventually, turns older lubricants into gum.
The earth is a slightly oblate sphere. Glad I could help.
I have two degrees in Geography so have heard all about the earth’s shape as an oblate sphere about 25,000 miles in circumference around the Equator, slightly less around the Poles - rotating at a rate of about 1000 mph, thus making that bulge... Yeah, I heard it all. Learning it back in the early NASA days, I didn’t expect much actual visual proof then in textbooks— but now with all that excitement over ISS, Hubble, and a dune buggy scurrying about Mars, what’s so wrong in wanting to see the whole earth in a non-photoshopped image? Your responses indicate that some things we just can’t question, or out come the Krackens.
What does Hubble think it is, Twitter in Space?
Hubble was a Handler for the Official Outer Space Narrative just like Fauci is the Handler for the Official Inner Space Narrative- the Jesuits are the Overseers of both.
