That thing has had so many problems over the development years I wonder if it'll ever really live up to the hype. It'll be great though if it does.

Yeah, they keep finding flaws they have to fix. But better here on Earth than after it launches. I think that the whole fiasco with the Hubble mirror being out of focus taught them a valuable lessen, and they definitely don't want another public relations nightmare like that. Especially since this telescope was so much more expensive to build.

Good point and likely true. Anyway, it'll be great to see that thing get settled into orbit. A great asset for astronomy.
