After 35+ years, NASA has given a deadline of the year 2032 to rescue the Hubble Space Telescope. NASA has asked commercial companies to save the craft by boosting it higher. If successful, Hubble could have its life extended by 25 years, or more.
NASA asks industry for ideas about saving Hubble Space Telescope
It's not the first time that NASA has considered sending a robotic spacecraft to help Hubble.

Why we shouldn’t lose Hubble: it observes primarily visible and ultraviolet light, as well as some infrared. Hubble has contributed to around 23,000 scientific papers. NASA’s future Habitable Worlds Observatory is not expected until the 2040s.

NASA's Hubble palette resembles Myan colors: vibrant golds, deep coppers, earthy reds, and turquoise blues. Myan myth includes parrots in their cosmology. So rendering the Parrot Nebula in this palette is ideal.
