Hubble Shutdown!!!

Hi peoples did you know the Hubble shutdown? Yeah it shut down like a week ago, but as I heard in this article they said it was perfect timing. They said that because they've been planning a trip to the Hubble to change its battery but the mission was delayed. So if they had gone earlier then they wouldn't have enough funds to get back up there. The Hubble didn't fly out of the orbit it as many of you probably guessed it just went in to safe mode so it didn't turn off. Well they're planning on having a trip to fix it but the guy whos in charge is leaving so its up to the next person whos in charge of NASA to decide if they're going or not. But I heard they're going to maybe fix it in early 2009.
