The 10 claims made by Robert Bassano about the Hubble Space Telescope:
1) It never left the launch pad on April 24, 1990 [mission was delayed a few times].
2) If it did [which I don't believe it did based on my research] then they found out it didn't work and had to recapture it in another mission
3) HST was brought back down and gutted to be re-engineered to create Chandra and remaining parts made up SOFIA
4) They spent another $1.5bn to develop SOFIA program
5) Chandra is out there looking at another spacecraft. Not out in space. Which means I was lied to by HST Manager and Chandra can view HST. Chandra is pointed back at the earth.
6) All of HST images are CGI images - http://hubblesite.org/gallery/behind_the_pictures/. HST has 3 onboard cameras which can take video and HD images in color. That is NASA's claims.
7) Decaying orbit calculations should have HST within visible range of ISS with a 200-500mm telephoto lens. The ISS and HST actually come with range of one another during their supposes orbits.
8) HST has no way of maneuvering to keep itself in orbit. No propulsion system. They admit it!!
9) Listen to the interview with HST yourself - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1eEI7uKgSgA
10) And listen to what this NASA astronaut says - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7BD6ujljzk
Your distorted view of science is not science itself. Go back to school.
It's important to point out that no POSITIVE PROOF has ever been presented as evidence that the Earth is flat. Only negative irrational and unscientific theories have been exhibited.
All attempts to prove the Earth is flat are based upon efforts to cast doubt on the validity of scientific data that clearly demonstrates that the Earth is a globe - rather than showing proof of flatness.
POSITIVE PROOF:
A real photograph taken from an elevation of 500 miles or more above the surface of the Earth, that clearly shows the Earth is flat.
A real photograph taken of the flat Earth edge.

ROBERT BASONO BUSTED. NOW WITH THE RETIREMENT OF SOPHIA HE CAN NO LONGER CLAIM THE HUBBLE SPACE TELESCOPE DOES NOT EXIST.
Some flat Earthers have and still continue to insist, that The Hubble Space Telescope does not exist - that all those pictures attributed to Hubble are really from SOPHIA (Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy).Well, now they can't get any more traction out of that lie, as SOPHIA is being retired and the Hubble photos keep on coming. https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/SOFIA/overview/index.html

Press Release From: Universities Space Research Association
Posted: Wednesday, June 15, 2022
NASA and DLR (German Space Agency) recently announced the cessation of operations of SOFIA – the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy--whose science mission operations are managed by Universities Space Research Association (USRA). SOFIA conducts a broad range of astrophysical and planetary science investigations using unique, state-of-the-art and far infrared capabilities to address key NASA astrophysics’ objectives.
USRA has been proud to work with NASA on SOFIA whose legacy has been remarkable.
SOFIA’s contributions to interdisciplinary science include significant achievements such as
- Finding water on the Moon
- First measurements of atomic oxygen in the Earth’s mesosphere and lower thermosphere
- Determining how magnetic fields control star formation and how magnetic fields grow and develop in galaxies. Understanding the origin, amplification and morphology of the magnetic field is crucial to forming a complete picture of Galaxy development
- Discovering that Stellar winds, not supernovae disperse molecular clouds, trigger the birth of new stars and can dominate feedback
- Discerning the dynamics of interstellar gas and feedback from stars to gas through high spectral resolution
- Detecting the helium hydride molecule, the first molecule in the Universe
- Studying the composition and evolution of the Interstellar Medium (ISM) by surveying the ISM with cameras, spectrometers, and polarimeters that operate in the near-, mid-, and far-infrared wavelengths, each suited to studying a particular phenomenon
- Studies in the infrared that highlight stellar collision
- Observing a comet with “ocean-like” water, providing hints about the origins of Earth’s oceans
- Finding out how magnetic fields can help feed active black holes
- On the other hand, finding out how magnetic fields are working to keep the Milky Way’s black hole quiet
- Helping to create a panoramic view of the Milky Way’s center – spanning a distance of 600 light-years – in infrared
- Studying how a type of organic molecule could develop in space, helping to better understand how life could have developed on Earth
- Catching a glimpse of what happens after two planets collide
- Finding the amount and location of water vapor around a protostar
- Confirming that a nearby planetary system around the star Epsilon Eridani is remarkably similar to our own solar system
- Finding that dust can not only survive, but may be formed in the wake of a supernova explosion, one of the most powerful events in the universe, whose blast destroys almost everything in its path
- Observing how stellar pulsations affect the chemistry of the universe
As far as capabilities are concerned, SOFIA offers diverse competencies like high resolution spectroscopy and Far-IR polarimetry. Studies of SOFIA’s science capabilities provide compelling synergies with other observatories in NASA’s portfolio. For example, studies of the bright nearby Universe are key to illuminating the underlying physics in the more distant objects that will be targeted by the James Webb Telescope. Balloon Missions such as GUSTO and BlastPol provide direct scientific synergy with SOFIA by performing even wider-area surveys or pathfinder science of select regions. The capabilities of these facilities complement SOFIA capabilities and offer open access to a much larger observer base.
SOFIA’s instrument suite provides continuum, spectroscopic and polarization imaging in the full mid-IR and far-IR wavelength range inaccessible from the ground. The spectral resolving power of SOFIA provides measurements not possible with any other observatory. Unlike space-based IR facilities, SOFIA’s instrument detectors don’t saturate with light even on the bright targets, many of which serve as local templates for understanding the distant universe.
SOFIA’s instruments are constantly upgraded depending on the science needs. Principal Investigator teams selected through a competitive proposal process develop the instruments. Current instruments include FORCAST and HAWC+, FIFI-LS, EXES, and GREAT. All instruments remain in high demand. FORCAST and GREAT are the most mature in the instrument suite and their observations have produced the most scientific publications.
SOFIA has doubled its annual science publications over the past three years. In first eight years after starting operations, SOFIA produced over 300 scientific papers which is significantly higher than science return from far-infrared balloon programs and at a comparable hours-per-paper as the Herschel Space Observatory, the last far-infrared space observatory.
SOFIA continues to move forward with higher productivity and greater impact till the end of its term.
USRA looks forward to partner with NASA to ensure the safe fly out of SOFIA and ensure that its science legacy is captured appropriately for the astronomical community.
