Just for one single picture like pic related you could make millions in licensing fees. Spectacular new pictures from space is something every newspaper and website is going to have to have and all of them are going to pay for it.

Plus, you can make additional money basically loaning out the telescope. Let's say you pay 1 million to have the telescope look at whatever you want for 24 hours. Sounds like a lot, but considering what you are getting, it really isn't. That would be a revenue of 365 million per year. Depending on how much the telescop cost, you could actually make a really nice profit this way. And since things like pic related would probably still get circulated even years after the telescope stopped working, you might generate cash flows from it years after its retirement.
