Seriously: http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2012/06/hey-brother-can-you-spare-a-hubble-dod-sure-have-two/258061/
Quoting the Washington Post: "The U.S. government's secret space program has decided to give NASA two telescopes as big as, and even more powerful than, the Hubble Space Telescope. Designed for surveillance, the telescopes from the National Reconnaissance Office were no longer needed for spy missions and can now be used to study the heavens." This is what I described here. The spy sats are better than Hubble. As I said, when Hubble was being constructed, the spooks offered technical assistance which was largely ignored. That is probably why the lens came out wrong. - Jed
