History repeats itself right ? Before Hubble’s telescope, scientists were saying : “it will show the hedge of the universe, where there is no Galaxies yet formed”. Remind me in 6 months.
I don’t know what to expect but I find that the older I get the more excited I am about basic research like this.
Aging decreases my own libido, so proportionally, all the rest increases.
Space is unimaginably vast. It is overwhelmingly unlikely we’ll even fully understand a tiny fraction of it even if we explore until the end of the universe.
To quote Douglas Adams’s Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy: “Space,” it says, "is big. Really big. … 😆
( i like those books so very much )
Maybe before you attack an achievement like Webb you should ask why there’s a bunch of Hubble level telescopes in orbit pointed towards earth.
Having said that, it will be really cool to see the infrared light that other space telescopes are unable to pick up.
i agree with telescopes funding,
disagree with Big Bang theory,
agree with expansion of the visible universe as explaning red shift &+

From your link : “… Planet 9 is predicted to be fairly large but far…”
My quick search : “Saturn Spacecraft Not Affected by Hypothetical Planet 9 - NASA”
https://www.nasa.gov/feature/jpl/saturn-spacecraft-not-affected-by-hypothetical-planet-9/My main interest is that our view of the cosmos, would it be scientific or mythology, is somewhat shaping our actions.

“pour money”
ok, if i read this correctly, together with your previous post : You are saying this is a waste of money, even worse : We are destroying ourselves with this.What i am saying is : before science there was mythology or any such things.
Before wasting money people were wasting goods for such things.
Such things answers a humane need.“no guns required”
i like peaceful people (Amish), still I believe we need progress.
High-res infrared images?
lol 🤪 ! But of course, yes !
Best high resolution ever 😌

Strongly agree with some, and strongly disagree with other, of the things you say here. And i don’t know what is “id-git” … maybe it is better if i don’t know ?
