I’d rather have the first images of Hunter’s lap top.

Wow!! That is TOTALLY worth billions of dollars.

That “image” could never never be created otherwise.

Beautiful!

I’d rather see billions go into that than given to the war effort in Ukraine.

There is no way to know what technology will come from this knowledge.

However, from past performance, it will have immense consequences.

Stephan’s Quintet, a visual grouping of five galaxies, is best known for being prominently featured in the holiday classic film, “It’s a Wonderful Life.” Today, NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope reveals Stephan’s Quintet in a new light. This enormous mosaic is Webb’s largest image to date, covering about one-fifth of the Moon’s diameter. It contains over 150 million pixels and is constructed from almost 1,000 separate image files. The information from Webb provides new insights into how galactic interactions may have driven galaxy evolution in the early universe. With its powerful, infrared vision and extremely high spatial resolution, Webb shows never-before-seen details in this galaxy group. Sparkling clusters of millions of young stars and starburst regions of fresh star birth grace the image. Sweeping tails of gas, dust and stars are being pulled from several of the galaxies due to gravitational interactions. Most dramatically, Webb captures huge shock waves as one of the galaxies, NGC 7318B, smashes through the cluster.

Cool pics but there was no need for the weeks long striptease reveal. Just show us the goods from the telescope.

I hope the new images are better then that first one.
It is a blurry photo.

Hmmm...
When I hold a grain of sand at arm’s length, I have to use binoculars just to see it...
Now & then, old age is a bitch...
