This would be incredibly difficult, sadly. The key thing to remember when it comes to space is energy/momentum. Right now, the Hubble Space Telescope is 24,000 lb of mass moving at 4.7 miles per second. To get it back down to earth, you need to somehow slow it down. First, slow it down enough to reach the atmosphere and then protect it as the atmo drag slowed it the rest of the way. I don't even think the Space Shuttle, were it still around, would be capable of doing that. |
