Is it true that after a 1 billion dollar effort that the Hubble Telescope was NOT repaired? YES. That thing is still broken. They could not twist the nut off the bolt!! absolute fact. They covered it up with total BS but the radio telescope will never work again!! This was after they launched the pile of junk into space and the lens would not focus!! Remember that fiasco? Shut this disaster down.

They covered it up with total BS but the radio telescope will never work again!! First mistake, Hubble's repair was successful and lead to improved processing techniques for astrophotos, second mistake, Hubble is not a radio telescope.
