The last service mission for the the Hubble Space Telescope has been cancelled, so it looks like its lifetime will be over in just a few years, before there will even be the next generation of space telescope up there. Whatever reasons – money, security,… – cause the final decision, it’s definately a big loss for science.

Merry Christmas…
Since I’m leaving over Christmas, not that it would make a difference for the Blog ;-), I wanna wish everyone a Merry Christmas and some nice holidays…
Finally changed the front page template
Finally got rid of the ESA news on the front page, which haven’t gotten any update for a long time, and changed the template, so that the last 5 entries are shown and not those of the last n days. That was just looking too empty 😉
Ooops…
Now I haven’t been on my own blog for so long, that I didn’t even notice my Apache was misconfigured after updating and moving the directory… I should really invest a little bit more time into this again…
