Are satellites better than hubble telescope?

"Better" at doing WHAT, exactly? First, the Hubble Space Telescope _IS_ a satellite. It was the first large astronomical telescope placed in orbit. Since then, other larger ones have been launched, but the Hubble itself has been a great asset to astronomy. Second, the HST has a few specific purposes. It doesn't aid in weather forecasting, it cannot relay telephone calls and it doesn't broadcast TV programs to your dish, which are things that other satellites CAN do. But other satellites can't do what the Hubble does, or as well.
