Referring to the man vs. machine exploration of space, Eugene Cernan remarked that "They don't throw ticker tape parades for robots" - After seeing this image (and many others like it) I feel it's time we do just that for Hubble's designers and operators. Maybe they could put together a Macy's style balloon of Hubble to lead the procession.
