I wonder if the concern is the actual damage if Hubble observed Mercury, or the potential damage if Hubble accidently pointed directly at the Sun as it slewed to obseve Mercury.
The difference is that if Hubble will not be saved and it will be de-orbited, might it be worth the risk to have it obseve Mercury as it's last obsevation? |
