Imagine whatever you wanted for Christmas would be a telescope. While you anxiously remove layer after layer of wrapping, there it's -- your brother's old one. Well, okay, in case your brother was the nation's Reconnaissance Office (and also you were NASA) this may not appear as illegal. Fortunately so, as that's effectively what's just happened. The NRO has given NASA two 2.4-meter "space qualified" telescopes and satellite casings for this to experience with. The gifts -- which could observe about 100 occasions the part of the Hubble telescope -- could complement existing projects and supply much-needed assets in the space agency. As there's presently no funded mission on their behalf, however, they'll remain firmly on the floor for the time being, but a minimum of this suggests they are unnecessary elsewhere -- hinting at enhanced worldwide relations. Unless of course the NRO got upgrading
