      Well those galaxies aren't "there" any more, however they most definitely still exist as a galaxies in some manner. The vast majority of stars that exist in our universe are cooler stars, and they have life spans that exceed the age of the universe many times over so they're still trucking along, it's the very big stars, the most exciting stars, the ones that explode at the end of their life that may live but a few tens or hundreds of millions of years, those are the ones that end up decreasing in numbers of time as there the amount of "star stuff" gets less and less over time.

      The telescope can see galaxies 13.5 billion light years away. You can almost see the birth of the universe. They say... Don't they know what the speed of light is?
      In the time this light has reached us, another 13.5 billion years have passed out there. What it looks like over there, no one knows...
      The birth of the universe...hmm... The light of birth faded long before the first suns and galaxies were created.
      Example: You stand outside in the middle of the night and flash a strong flashlight once at the moon. To be able to see that light again, you would have to be on the moon 1.3 seconds later with a large telescope. Then you can see the flashing with the flashlight. 499 seconds later you can see the twinkle from the sun if you flash your flashlight in the middle of the day. If you have a very powerful telescope and can also handle the heat :-)
      The light then passes out into space and can only be seen in 13.5 billion years at the most. But that's if we count now, at the far end (13.5 billion years away) another 13.5 billion years have passed, so 27 billion years...
      So the light from the birth of the universe we can never see because all light disappears behind us.

      Switch magnets & ellipses EQUALS interstellar travel.
      1+1=2
      Let me explain simply.
      1. Similar polarity magnets repulse. Try it.
      2. The kinetic energy of a similar polarity ball will release at the top of an ellipse. Try it with a switch magnet.
      3. Do that in space. Inertia in a vacuum.
      4.Do that again, in space.
      WOOMP! WOOMP!! WOOMP!!!
      How fast can you go?!?!
      Safety warning AND helpful hint:
      NEVER use a pendulum for the magnet.
      Your craft will disintegrate before you can stop it.
      Pendulums should ONLY be used to test the integrity of your craft.

      It is indeed "removed from their day to day" lives. IMO, we can no longer depend on the ISS to wow people. Decades were spent with the ISS and few of us can name any new discoveries that this machine made. Ditto all the Mars missions; they may be inspiring to technicians. But, imo, even the Mars missions are losing their inspiration. I was hoping that Webb would provide humanity with INSPIRATION, not just more pretty pictures, i.e. Hubble.

NASA built the telescope together with ESA and CSA and jointly carries take care of the maintenance." So it is a collaboration and not a NASA project as claimed in the video!

      It's kinda crazy. Hubble needed days or weeks of imaging a dark spot in the sky in order to get those hidden galaxies. It was actually thought of as kind of a waste of telescope time until the first results came back.
      Now JWST simply snaps a picture of a planet in our solar system and even that has galaxies in the background. It's a totally new paradigm in capability.

      It's a catch 22 in a lot of ways though, sadly. War is what pushed the invention of rockets that enabled us to go to space to begin with. (missiles) It would be nice if we as a species would find a way to be innovative by something other than competition.

      No other field has changed so much to the better....from antibiotics to x-ray technology....crystal clear images from other planets.... vaccines....the greatest of all scientific theories aka Evolutionary theory.... quantum computing....laser technology....ITER and the pursuit of Nuclear Fusion....dating technologies....the molecular clock....CRISPR.... genetics..... nuclear plants....computer technology....the understanding of electromagnetism in theory and praxis.... airplanes....vehicles....GPS using General Relativity..... endosymbiosis theory.....Large Hadron colliders....Infrared light.... microwaves....
      Just think of all the incredible scientific instruments, theories, machines, medicine, books.... nothing compares in terms of understanding the factual, testable, verifiable and falsifiable material nature of ourselves, Earth and the universe.
      And our knowledge constantly grows while scientific theories grow with evidence or new observations/experimental data.

I was born in 1979 and for the first 13 years of my life we were the only planet in the universe, then we found one more in 1992.. then another, and another, then 30 years later we found so many we can confidently say that planets around stars are the rule not the exception.. I just hope that in my life we can discover, or prove rather, that life in the universe is the rule not the exception.. with so many bad things happening in the world its things like this that remind me that humanity can still really be that kid at heart, so curious, full of wonderment and excitement!..

      the moon and Mars are as dead and inhospitable to DNA life as they can possibly be
      there is nothing that could happen to the Earth that would make it more 'destroyed' than Mars already is
      so anything you could build on the Moon or Mars to allow life to continue there, you could build right here on Earth, for 0.0000001 % of the cost
      You are part of the DNA life that inhabits the entire Earth, that has been alive here for billions of years.
      You are part of the Earth, the Earth is literally what comprises your physical body
      You cant live anywhere else, not anywhere that we know of, certainly not on the Moon or Mars
      sorry, but the future aint what it use to be

I also think 'How did this come to be?' Can there be any other way than to explain it besides it is from our Creator?
    I also think of my professor who taught me a love for Astronomy years ago and how he and others could not live to see this... Or are they actually 'alive' and have come to know many secrets after death because they are very much well and all-knowing spirits in the Universe. So many questions... and we are just left with awe... Until more is revealed! Did you hear him say only 4% is known about the universe?! 4%!!

      So the processing takes B+W images, looks for the frequency differences, and assigns it colors- just like your brain does. Same idea.
