There are many advantages of using the Hubble Space Telescope as the next century approaches. The uses, findings, discoveries, and history of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) show that HST should be used well after the ending mission date. The objectives and design of the HST are basic and understandable. The instrument changes over the past years have made HST more dependable, updated, and advanced. Knowledgeable astronauts can easily and safely replace obsolete instruments with new ones. HST should be used in the future as opposed to ending the entire mission of the HST. There are also many advantages of using both the HST and the Next Generation Space Telescope (NGST) instead of just using the NGST. The NGST can be used to explore new ideas in space that HST is not able to do. HST can be used to update old information and explore everything that it is capable of exploring. While the NGST is more technologically advanced, HST is better known among scientists worldwide. Scientists have a greater understanding of HST. HST is very reliable and has a successful record.
