“… would be, not to supplement our present ideas of the universe we live in, but rather to uncover new phenomena not yet imagined, and perhaps to modify profoundly our basic concepts of space and time.''

Top Ten Hubble Space Telescope ExcusesDavid Letterman
10. The guy at Sears promised it would work fine. 9. Some kids on Earth must be fooling around with a garage door opener. 8. There's a little doohickey rubbing against the part that looks kind of like a cowboy hat. 7. See if you can think straight after 12 days of drinking Tang.6. Bum with squeegee smeared lens at red, light. 5. Blueprints drawn up by that "Hey Vern! guy. 4. Those damn raccoons! 3. Shouldn't have used G.E. components. 2. Ran out of quarters. 1. Race of super-evolved galactic beings are screwing with us.

“Today, we have reached far out into space. Our immediate neighborhood we know rather intimately. But with increasing distance our knowledge fades, and fades rapidly, until at the last dim horizon we search among ghostly errors of observation for landmarks that are scarcely more substantial.
The search will continue. The urge is older than history. It is not satisfied and will not be suppressed.”
