- vimacs2 5y agoIt makes you wonder what kind of clarity the images of the James Web telescope will provide when it eventually gets launched - presumably by the time we will have starships that can just go there in person. All kidding aside though, it does seem like it actually will get launched soon for real. We definitely live in exciting times for astronomy as well as potential space colonisation.
