I guess allowing bankruptcy after N years might make sense. By that time the bankruptcy judge gets a good idea on future income potential.

If bankruptcy was possible, couldn't every student declare bankruptcy after graduation since that point they have nothing to lose?

Back in the 80s there used to terminal similar to this in bay area BART stations. Sluggish text and line graphics. I forget what they used to be called.

Another reason for the 65GB of storage is that storage is only used to buffer a day worth of transmitted data along with the previous days data till reception is confirmed.

So the premiums are not too different between US and Germany. The two advantages I see with Germany is the premiums are proportional to income and likely costs of procedures and medications are better negotiated by the government. Do you ha

I can see a couple factors: * To be useful to science, the telescope needs a huge diameter which is more than can be launched so they had to make a folding telescope that can be later unfolded. * We only get a single chance for success so t

How much details we can see if based on the wavelength of light and the diameter of the telescope. And if you worked it out, the telescope diameter would have to be enormous. https://calculator.academy/diffraction-limit-calc

They have dozens filters on the telescope so they take multiple pictures at different wavelength and assign colors to them and combine them. The galaxies from the early universe would not be visible in the visible spectrum since due to red

All the untouched images will be available in the MAST archives which is where the Hubble data is also available. ( https://archive.stsci.edu/ )

They do have some custom tools that are publicly available. I saw some videos in the past showing how they use those tools along with Photoshop to process images.

You need to mask out the bright star with a coronagraph and then the planet needs to be big/bright enough. Even then you will just see a dot as this ESO telescope image shows. However using spectroscopy they can deduce the composition

They might clean it up further in the future when they have more time. For the science they care more about the spectroscopy anyway.

I'm sure someone could check the MAST archives ( https://archive.stsci.edu/ ) of all historical Hubble pictures to see if they match up.

I imagine in the future they will also run the JWST with a long exposure and the Hubble to get even more details?

Italy and Greece have a lot of debt so raised interest rates means their payments go up a lot more. Since they are part of the euro and can't print their own money they have no easy options.
