Try turning it off, then turning it back on.
Hubble is way past its life expectancy.
Let the poor thing retire in peace.
It has been carried the whole time, anyway.
When they first cut the mirror it was fucked up. They had to give it corrective lenses.
The backup mirror made by another contractor was made to the proper specs. Since no proper testing was done during assembly due to the testing facilities being under Air Force control and testing there would make Hubble a military project, the bad mirror wasn't discovered until after deployment. Had they tested it, the backup mirror could have been installed and worked as intended.
It’s been in trouble since they launched it.
The Hubble Space Telescope is bullshit.
they should turn it around and take a picture of the earth as it falls
It's in a medium Earth Orbit and won't decay in our lifetimes.
