Now I'm not the hugest fan of the Hubble Telescope, but I do admire what's it's done and what it's capable if doing, so I found this article on the NASA website detailing what this fifth and final Hubble servicing mission is gonna try and accomplish.

Sounds pretty cool. Also very challenging mission too with five space walks.
 
I've heard that if they do another mission to hubble after this they would be using a wholy robotic repair mission using their "boba fett" remote controlled robots.
 
That was the idea before the shuttle mission was greenlit. I'm not sure if there are plans to even have another service mission after this one.
