No, but there’s much better satellites that can get down to about a marble.

Not saying that we don't build technically better satellites today compared to Hubble. But Hubble is just not made to image the earth.

Just like Hubble cannot take a good picture of the earth, the satellites that do will not take an image of the crab nebula comparable to Hubble.

Right tool for the right job.
