A new web site has been launched that aims to prevent the Hubble Space Telescope from being abandoned.

The site can be found at http://www.SaveTheHubble.com and operates as a forum about Hubble's prospects. Individuals can now voice their opinions online and view references that are designed to advocate saving the telescope.

Nasa has made the decision to cancel the fifth and final visit of the space shuttle to service the Hubble Space Telescope. A service of the telescope is reportedly essential if it is to operate until the end of the decade.
