Can’t they send someone out with a tool box and a laptop to straighten things out?

The female astronauts lost the tools.

Hah. Thank Barack Obama for shutting down the Shuttle program. Hubble, you may recall, was built for on-orbit servicing.

Which leads me to ask: Can Falcon-9/Crew Dragon reach Hubble's orbit? If so, would it be feasible to carry out a repair mission using the Dragon spacecraft? A complicated EVA from Dragon would certainly be more challenging than a complicated EVA from STS.

Ooooopsee! Shuttle don’t go there anymore. Well, they don’t go anywhere anymore. Surely NASA has a plan. Oww owwi know. If they become more diverse and inclusive it will all work out. Flying people? Well, call Elon.

Sheila Jackson Lee probably would send the Mars Rover over to check out Hubble.

Hubble was rassist towards brown dwarfs.
