FACTOID: The HST (Hubble Space Telescope) orbits the Earth. That's why repair missions could be performed. The JWSP (James Webb Space Telescope) orbits the Sun. No repair missions for the JWST.
 
Hmmm, by my calculations they both orbit the Sun... but I could be mistaken....
 
Does the JWST need some repairs? I remember the HST had a flawed lens or something like that after it was first launched.

If you want to confuse the issue by implying that because the Earth orbits the Sun that the HST that orbits the Earth orbits the Sun also, your calculations would be correct. However if you want to convey some knowledge and simply state the the HST and the JWST both orbit the Sun your calculations are entirely wrong and willfully deceptive.

Right now the scientists working with the JWST are claiming it is entirely successful. However it cannot be repair should it need repairs.

Just to be accurate (and to do gentle spankies), the earth and sun and a blue jillion other suns orbit around the black hole in the center of our galaxy.

But perhaps we need not bring that into our discussion as serious input... either.
