Webb Ping!.....................
MORE Here!...........
Pretty cool, actually.
Has anyone figured out how big space is ? Is it infinite?
How would we know when we got to the end of it?
Is there a wall?...............
Or a cliff?
interesting how every single one has the same amount of saturation(orange) in it... they are nice pics, but they are not real.
True- the coloration is for demonstration purposes only- the article shoulda made that clear-
So we have a Webb telescope and a Hubble telescope. Imagine what a Webb Hubble telescope could see.
It’s turtles all the way down.
Face-on spiral galaxy, NGC 628, is split diagonally in this image: The James Webb Space Telescope’s observations appear at top left, and the Hubble Space Telescope’s on bottom right. Webb and Hubble’s images show a striking contrast, an inverse of darkness and light. Why? Webb’s observations combine near- and mid-infrared light and Hubble’s showcase visible light. Dust absorbs ultraviolet and visible light, and then re-emits it in the infrared. In Webb's images, we see dust glowing in infrared light. In Hubble’s images, dark regions are where starlight is absorbed by dust. NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI, Janice Lee (STScI), Thomas Williams (Oxford), and the PHANGS team 
Hubble’s image of NGC 628 shows a densely populated face-on spiral galaxy anchored by its central region, which has a light yellow haze that takes up about a quarter of the view. The core is brightest at the center, washing out light from other objects. Delicate spiral arms start near the center and extend to the edges, rotating counterclockwise. There is more brown dust beginning at the center, but as the arms extend outward, brown dust lanes alternate with diffuse lines of bright blue stars. Throughout the spiral arms, there are bright pink patches of star-forming clusters. NASA, STScI
Corruption.............
Pretty much every one of those marks the location of a black hole.
The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
2Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.
3There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.
4Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,
5Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.
6His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.
7The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.
8The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.
9The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.
10More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb.
Psalm 19
First, one needs to define "space".
Second, mathematically, as Georg Cantor showed, infinity comes in different sizes. If space is infinite, is it just Aleph-null infinite?
the edge of eternity...
I’m sure if you substitute “universe” for “space”, this is what he means.
“Space” is such a general catch-all term, it has no real meaning.
Just my take, if you will...
