I'm quite pleased they got the stuff back - I really wish they'd actually bring Hubble back at the end of its life in space... then again after the upgrade its still going pretty damn well.

Very good news Sam.  I think the camera was designed and built in Cardiff so it would be nice if it could come back home for a month or so!
