This is something I feel very strongly about.
First just fix it...
Second under no circumstances let it fall into the ocean.
At any cost bring it back and place it in the Smithsonian.
These yanks save their old oil advertising signs, star wars dolls, in fact anything that is " its the only one of its kind" rebuild old cars fit for melt down etc etc etc, I know you only need one etc but this is a special case, to the point one could say it is a sickness and yet there seems not a wimper re the most significant science instrument ever constructed...
You cant tell me it cant be returned by a nation who can do anything and really able to manufacture any amount of money required.
Auction it...do we not have any billionaires into collecting...
And if it takes money away from gravity wave research I think the recover of Hubble is money much better spent.
I dont know and ask...what does the "average" USA citizen think? Does anyone care?
