NASA spent a decade of its resources and around $10 billion overall in building this spectacle of an “eye on space” with the help of Northrop Grumman, with initial launch and expense expectations at $1–3.5 billion and 2010.
This cost also covers the 10 break-through innovations made during the course of 30 years in an attempt to build the best telescope in the history of astronomy.
