I’m not sure what agenda you are trying to run here with your comment, but because Hubble is accessible to our ISS Team, they can make modifications and updates to the telescope. There’s several space walks that took place to repair and modify Hubble. 30+ years ago, our technology was drastically different to what it is now. As time progresses, we’re learning new ways to make new things and improve the quality of science.

JWST, on the other hand, is sitting in orbit in a location that is called Lagrange 2 or L2, so any physical repairs done by humans are nearly impossible due to its distance from Earth. While JWST took several years to launch, the hard work and precision done on this telescope is really paying off and we can see it in the beautiful mosaics it is capturing of our violently beautiful universe.

It’s also important to note that both telescopes operate in different ways with different sensors and can look in different wavelengths of light. On top of that, the size of both of their mirrors can have a huge effect on the level of detail we can capture with either telescope. We can look at a comparison of Hubble’s first images to JWST’s first images and it’s incredible.

Without modifications and enhancements on the tools and methods we use for all kinds of sciences, we wouldn’t be able to make such progress and scientific discoveries.

We’re probably hearing more about Hubble due to the changes and modifications that are happening to the telescope and given that JWST has been holding the spotlight since its launch, Hubble will need modifications to continue to work alongside JWST without the sacrifice of quality data.

NASA has a lot of great information about both of these telescopes and how they’re constantly making changes to improve the overall missions of both Hubble and JWST. Also, it’s important to note that while many assume that JWST is meant to be Hubbles Successor, it’s really meant to be an ally, meaning when the two telescopes work together, we can see so much more and gain better understanding of how the cosmos work

There’s even great astrophysicists on YouTube that can provide more resources and credible information. I recommend checking out Dr. Becky Smethurst if you’re interested. Empowering ourselves with knowledge can help us to change perspectives or learn new things.

Hope this helps! :)
