Should they merge the Webb Telescope image with the Hubbell Telescope image to get the Webb Hubbell image?

I worked at the Keck observatory for almost ten years and all this “stuff” is very normal to me.
Kecks are segmented mirrors.

This JM machine is pretty awesome!

My only question is this -
How does this better the life of the people
that live here, while they waste their
time trying to find other Earths and life that
with our existing technology, we’ll never
interact with.

Paid me pretty good for 10 years.
but..........................

Aloha

That’s a very good image of a star that is 280 light years away.

They should try and get something closer, like Alpha Centuri.
They could probably show nearly as good an image as we get of the sun.
