Hubble glitch renews talk about private servicing mission
spacenews.com
A problem with the Hubble Space Telescope has renewed discussion about whether and how NASA might approve a private mission to service it.

I cannot express just how much I want this to happen.

No attempt = hubble will fail and reenter

Attempt(failure) = same

Attempt(success) = hubble continues groundbreaking science and, after some time, can be brought back to earth via Starship to become a museum piece that inspires generations!!
