I am really excited to see what this telescope produces, meanwhile Hubble continues to amaze.

... Hubble continues to amaze.

When you consider the delays and then disaster from Hubble's initial deployment in 1990, I wager that no one could have seen / foreseen these 3 decades of kudos for this project! As critical as one can be of NASA, which is what that agency faced after discovering the warped mirror, the recovery and ongoing success is NASA at its BEST! When you consider the ROI of the HST Project, it has been worth every penny.

I dread its demise which is coming. To my knowledge, there is nothing that can save it or further prolong it BUT we can hope as 2030-40 gives some hope!
