The Hubble Space Telescope was great looking outside the galaxy, but galactic dust blocks our view of our own galaxy. It will be great to finally be able to peer through the dust and see the structure of the Milky Way.
We have way to many systems dependent on it. Most of our big applications are JSP based, but we have quite a few java applications browser and even desktop based.
The 1930's through the 1970's was the heyday of industrial society. People built things. Prior to that, we had an agricultural society, where people spent most of their effort obtaining food. Over time, we found ways to grow far more food per person, freeing most people to do something else. The same thing happened in manufacturing. In early industry you may need 4-10 people to perform a single manufacturing step. Now you have one operator running three machines simultaneously. Again freeing people to work somewhere else. Welcome to post industrial society. Now these people are working in the service industry, such as health care and entertainment. People don't just want health care from 9-5, people need to work odd hours. In the early industrial era, wages were low due to manufacturing being very inefficient, and wages needed to be keep low to make any kind of profit. This profit was often reinvested to improve manufacturing. Over time, the rational to keep it low was solved, and after a lot of fighting, was raised. We are still in the early service economy. Consumers want someone to answer questions on their products and services 24-7. Someone has to be there to answer the twitter post. These jobs are not hard to fill with low wage workers. So we have gone from agricultural to industrial to service economy. No one knows what the next one will be. When the service economy becomes efficient, and starts to create a body of excess people, we may move onto whatever the next version of the economy there is. Currently we are in the service economy. Each one improved the quality of life. People complain about wage disparity, but they also have cars, TVs, Xboxs, cell phones, iPads, etc. The profit needs to be invested back into the process to improve the service economy and cut down the need for so many people doing menial work.
You can't reuse one until you learn to land them successfully. They have landed ONE. And I can see the rational about saving it for a future museum. When they have 2 or 3 more successful landings, it will then make sense to launch them again.

I think that will be the Lunites.
The future's so bright, I gotta wear shades...

How can you tell? You can't even see over the corn.
It's something you can really wrap your arms around.
Gulliver's Travels predicted Mars' moons, and described them very accurately.
When the Moon is in the second house, and Neptune aligns with Uranus...
We can rename Pluto to Goofy, to stay with the Disney theme.
The Internet is a series of tubes, and the tubes are full of cats.
Now they can watch the 100 hour version of Nyan cat!
I am so glad that someone on the Internet was right.
Yes. That proposed budget that the president presents and has a billion printed copies made has very little to do with what actually gets approved.
Yes, Congress funds projects, not the President.
He will be the first to drive a Tesla on Mars.
Then it would finally be the year of the Linux desktop.
Also gluten free!
Give us a break. We just happen to like his music.
and the spiders from Mars will be the pallbearers.

Steal wool comes from Sheap.
I think this would "Stop wood".
You wouldn't use a butt joint here, maybe somewhere else ;)
The switch is countersunk and flush to the surface. Sanded smooth and polished with 000 steal wool. How else would a carpenter make one?
