I'm really tired of that crap. Those "artist's impressions" are worse than useless. Show me real imagery, real data.
The artists impression increases the chance of their being clouds and water there by how much?
Jwst nasa trying really hard to justify their huge delays and cost overruns.
“... Just Proved It’s Value in the Search for Alien Life”
I’ll accept that as true, but how valuable, in terms of money spent, is the search for alien life?
Years later, Patricia Neal, in an interview said that she and Michael Rennie had a had time getting thru the shoots because they couldn’t stop laughing at the ridiculous script!................
They are real easing photographsic images
Is this the same guy who does artists interpretations of the earth instead of, you know, an actual picture?
A figure most likely based on extrapolating data from known exoplanets and applying it to the total number of stars estimated to be in the milky way.
One problem here is that the star type which our sun belongs comprises about 7 percent of total stars.
So, the number likely drops to about 21 million. Still a large number but it drops significantly further when only the percentage of stars in the milky way that occupy our galaxy's habitable zone are counted.
That number drops further when stars not having relatively stable output are taken from the mix. On and on the reduction goes.
I just hope they don’t find life on Uranus.
Ha! They got me too. I’m thinking, wow - if it can capture THAT image it’s amazing ... and then they tell us it’s an ‘artist representation.’
I want my dollar back.
The mount for the Large Magellan Telescope is being built here, locally:

Well, it WILL be, just as soon as they complete the building that it’s going to be built in..
Can’t wait to get a tour of that, in a few years.
A great big Army camoflage ball, lost in space!
Now if we could just get a good picture of a UFO we’d really have something 🤪
Speaking of light, that one reminded me of
Mat 5:14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
😃
Thanks Red Badger.

The closest star system to us is only four and one half light Year’s away, now at a speed we can understand let’s get up to say 700 miles per hour we may speed up or slow down depending on what we pass on the way,don’t forget to set the alarm because we will reach our destination in only 850 million years...
Blow’s my mind just to think about it....
To do interstellar travel by any conventional means that we know of today IS impossible.
But I hope you are not assuming that we know everything there is to know.
The math proves that there are ways to travel faster than light. Commonly called ‘wormholes’ it is the bending of space/time to effectively jump from one place to another.
Bob Lazar explained that this is exactly how the alien spacecraft currently being studied at Area 51/ S4 work.
Bob Lazar. Boy there’s a name I haven’t heard in a while. Of course it was on Art Bell’s old show on Coast to Coast Am and what a show it was. I would get an hours sleep staying up all night to listen and then go to work. Heheh, I was younger then ;)
Well, let us hope we make it someday but it would be nice to send the better minds out there first, imho.
