      Constructive criticism: You need better production. I couldn't take the poor sound quality. Only watched a couple of minutes. Most of your other presentations are fantastic.

      @@savage22bolt32 I see (or rather hear) what you mean. The problem here is how and where this was recorded. One can see that this might be an office and she used a headset with a microphone? These settings limit the quality. And sadly you can't make something more/good out of limited quality...

    Completely fascinating stuff. I'm so old that I remember the Sputnik satellite when I was in the first grade and we got to hear it ping. Sadly, I will probably miss the upcoming truly dynamic era of space discoveries due to expiring long before a lot of it happens. I tried to inspire my nephews to get interested but sadly they found other interests. You young people, you have so much to look forward to and see of this universe. Don't miss any of it.

    Astronomy is really a hard nut to crack. These days, i am a submassive guest of all scientific lectures, indeed they are very excellent. Historically, i must profess that this kind of stuff unveiled to me a bulk of priceless lore i was ingnorant of before and helps to stride farther. You extend me greatly. So, with growth of knowledge we feel less insignificant in comparison to Multiverse. I am still musing upon it. Gratitudes.

    @chaosopher23 Год назад

    Space telescopes all over the place, billions of n-currencies spent, only for it to run out of gas in ten years. These instruments are too awesome to waste as space junk, so we really need to build a space gas station, that brings up a tank of gas, a better computer, a new battery, new bearings, changes the oil, washes the windscreen... and then comes back to Earth for a new refill mission. Most of this can be made automated enough.
    Why? If NASA sticks their fingers into this pie, it's going to last decades if it's projected for 7 years. Put the Jack Parsons... er, Jet Propulsion Laboratory in the picture, and the decade projection can go until the battery runs out. No one thought the Voyager mission would go on so long. Rumor has it, they have to use the original computers to make this one stay running! But run, it does. So, space gas station should be next. More generally: AI maintenance spacecraft.

  • @andycordy5190

    Lovely talk. Thank you!
    For those of us lay people nervously following the launch and initial deployment process, the timeline seems odd because the phase of the operational year begin with the start of the science program and not launch, also it's easier to remember JWST's birthday as launch day because it was at Christmas. It still gives me goose bumps.
    IMHO this kind of science is worth so much more than struggling to put humans back on the moon and the colossal effort required to put astronauts on Mars with its attendant dangers.
    This is the first I have heard of the mission to Uranus. A stunning opportunity but I doubt I will live to see that arrival.

    looking a nearby stuff < 100 light years and our solar system is bar far the most value use of this. Other galaxies and the cosmos is a waste of telescope time, the light too so long and they are so far away as to be irrelevant to us except purely academic but no practical value

    Every time I hear 'tennis court sized' I feel like my head is about to explode! How many giraffes is that? Elephants? Fridges? Why can't they just give us the dimensions, in Metric?! You could tag on Freedumb units to help the 350+ million people on this planet that use that outdated system. The other 8 billion will be fine.
    Info. I'm 60. Born in England. Was taught both systems. I despise Imperial. It also fills me with dismay that this small island of nearly 70 million ish people, mix and match between Metric and Imperial. It annoys me so much I could crush a grape!
    Right, back to the video ;)
