Re: A total failure for cheap launches
"And for the true cost of fixing the Hubble they could have launched another."
We do have "another." We have about 25 others. Trouble is, the others are all aimed DOWN. They are called "Keyhole" satellites. Owned by the CIA. Hubble was even built in the same factory as the Keyholes. With a total and complete firewall between personnel and spaces. If the people who build Keyholes were only allowed to consult with the Hubble people, Hubble would never have been blind in the first place. The Keyhole people saw it coming and couldn't say anything. We spend more money on defense than anything other than healthcare. My question is, "WTF are we defending?"
