It seems mankind's "eye" to the universe seems to be failing after 17 years. Its been reported that Hubble's "Advanced Camera for Surveys" (ACS) which is a third-generation main camera and to-date the most expensive one is failing due to power failure. Wikipedia did an early update about Hubble's news. Its been confirmed that it will retire by 2013 and be replace by its successor telescope - James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). I have included a video about Hubble's spectacular images of the universe.
