Most of the jobs that used to be done by the Hubble are done by
improved
Earth based telescopes today. Its mainly now used for spotting not the
major work.

The is no substantiated evidence of your opinion. While the Sedna (sp?)
discovery was made by Palomar (saw the motion across a star field),
there's
nothing that can compare with Hubble's unobstructed view. It's
examination
of the infant universe is unparalleled.

Until recently, NASA had planned to have the space shuttle return Hubble
to Earth for museum display.

And now there is no $billion to do that either.
