Meanwhile, you might take a moment to contemplate the impending demise of the Hubble telescope and the wasting of $200,000,000 worth of instruments which have already been constructed for it but for which NASA has no plans to deliver and instal on Hubble. One also wonders why it is that NASA can't use some tugbot (robot tugboat) to pull the thing into an orbiting junkyard near the space station rather than figuring out how to drop this 24,000 pounds of equipment onto Earth without hitting someone with the pieces. An overall plan to consolidate space junk into one orbiting area would make it easier to keep track of the trash and would keep it available for future construction projects. |
