What a great time to be an astronomer. -

Still a great time to be an astronomer. And an astrophysicist.
The data that JWST takes with each image is enough to fill probably hundreds of PhD thesis. Just use all of the data (which is always being taken) to look at something obscure in the image.Comment

I thought we weren't supposed to do this because it just turned one impact into a hundred?
My favorite asteroid defense is fly something next to the incoming asteroid. The gravitational attraction is enough to pull the asteroid off an impact trajectory. That is finesse.Cornell University

Interesting to find out I grew up in a class 2 area (which, I'm sure 30 to 40 years ago was on the very low end of class 2) and now live in a class 7 area.
It's taken 15-20 years, but I'm now appreciating how much of nature I grew up surrounded by in the UP.“Demolish the bridges behind you… then there is no choice but to build again.”
