    • One astronomer compared it to the fate of the faithful
    dog in the movie "Old Yeller." On Thursday, astronomers will
    discuss when and how NASA
    should put down one of its and astronomy’s most spectacular successes,
    the Hubble Space Telescope.

    NASA
    has long planned to end Hubble’s spectacular run and bring it down
    in 2010. Now some are saying its life can be extended.

    Full disclosure: I bawled like a baby the first time I saw “Old Yeller”…

    from
    the New York Times
