I caught the news this morning that the shuttle is scheduled to launch again this Spring.

If they are flying the shuttle anyway, why not take a trip over to Hubble and slap in a few new gyros? Hubble is the biggest success story of the entire shuttle program, and it’s NASA’s biggest success since Apollo.

I just don’t get this passive attitude NASA has about its demise.

The Hubble is going to be scrapped and the shuttle will be used only for the ISS for which I hear the US will eventual hand over operations to the ESA.
