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.
