It's sad that they are not willing to even try to design a safe way to get the shuttle up to Hubble's altitude so it can carry out the final Hubble servicing mission. It's going to mean the demise of Hubble fairly soon, and it's a huge waste of money (the new multi-million dollar cameras and other equipment are completed, ready to go into orbit anytime).

This website is trying to get NASA and the Bush administration to realize how many people want to see Hubble continue to function, improve, and continue to bring great science to us. If you support this, click here to add your name to the growing list.

Thanks everyone, and sorry for the grossly off-topic post. Embarassed
