It's sad that they are doing away with Hubble. I hate to see it go.
Guys, You have to stop them. I think, The Hubble project is not the American project any more. It's the earth's project like first spaceman, first moon landing, MIR, ISS, first Shuttle flight. In 1999 Russians decided to get MIR from the orbit. For many people it was like to kill the dream. Don't do the same mistake. I hope you will find the necessary means to keep the Hubble up there.
