- Hi there!
-
- I was wondewring about space telescopes in general and the Hubble
- telescope in particular and a few questions came to mind
-
- 1)Are there attempts going on to fix the Hubble telescope and if so what
- are they and what chance do they have of success?
-
- 2)What other Space telescopes are being planned? (if any)
-
- 3)Why was the Hubble's mirror made of glass as opposed to something like
- Aluminum?
-
- Thanks for any Info!
-
- Cheers
- Richard
