Lawmaker Urges NASA on Hubble Mission, AP

“This is a very important mission for us to continue and complete,” [Hoyer] said during a tour of the Hubble lab, which holds the robotic arm that could be used to fix the telescope. But Al Diaz, NASA’s Associate Administrator for Science who was on the same tour, said the agency has no plans to send a mission, manned or robotic, to repair Hubble. “We don’t intend on servicing it, that’s where we are,” Diaz said.”
