Funny U provided a link, I live near the VLA. Not sure if there are efficient visual-radiation arrays. Or how effective they would be in space. I know the hubble has taken duplicate images from opposite sides of our orbit with the sun to find parallax. Not sure if for image enhancement though. Maybe you know more about this?
And are U saying we did'nt have the computing power when the hubble was launched? I know the seti-soft. was designed withing a few years of the hubble, and NASA probably has a much better team than Berkely.
Whatever, eitherway I prefere deepspace research over lunar/martian colonization anyday of the week.

We do have spitzer now. Though I'm not sure of the dis/adv. of infrared compared to visual. http://www.spitzer.caltech.edu/
Nice.
Waste of money? How so?
