Bring the whole thing down and build an even bigger one, a huge array of telescopic mirrors and lenses. It'll only cost about 500 billion dollars or so. You may think that's a lot, but it's nothing if we stop fighting feckin' useless wars. The price of the Iraq war would build a pretty good telescope, and the taxpayers wouldn't even notice. Apart from the dumb ones who only think taxes aren't wasted if they're spent on goosestepping morons and bombs.
