随着航天飞机机队停飞，无法安装另一个哈勃维修任务。一切顺利的话，太空望远镜将
继续运行数年，继续揭示宇宙的辉煌。但是在接下来的十年里，卫星的部件将不可避免
地恶化并且在其轨道慢慢衰减。
作为有史以来最重要的科学工作之一，哈勃望远镜在二十世纪三十年代初重新进入大气
层时就注定要分开。它将像许多其他历史空间物体一样，从第一颗卫星和太空狗莱卡，
到天空实验室和和平号空间站。对于这样一个著名的目标来说，这似乎是一个不太好的
结局。相反，我们在博物馆中却保存历史悠久的船只、飞机、汽车和火车。我们应该照
顾哈勃并为后代保存它。
为什么不把哈勃望远镜带回地球呢？这是一项代价昂贵且具有挑战性的任务，埃维斯敦
促美国将太空望远镜保存在太空中。在最终的哈勃维修任务之前，美国国家航空航天局
调查了使用机器人航天器来交会和修理卫星而不是宇航员。
尽管有一天可能是月球上的博物馆，或者至少是某种重要文物的保护性避难所，但留下
的材料可能值得回到地球。在接下来的十年中，人们很有可能再次踏上月球表面，看到
尼尔阿姆斯特朗的第一个脚步。未来的几代人应该能够在个人太空船的地球周围拉开一
些卫星的位置。
