I am interested in pre-ordering a James Web Telescope. When will Zwo have them available and will it fit in my backyard? I will also need a mount!

There are some humans that think this all a waste of money, or, because NASA added to the pictures, these photos are, "fake, " and this is "all to distract us."

I am not of those people. I find science absolutely fascinating. Keep up the great work!

Since the Webb can see so clear so far away .... why knot look for planets that have cities and buildings point the telescope to Alpha Centauri or another ..
maybe it is already has happen .... that is why NASA had to look first .

Kudos to our friends at High Point Scientific for bringing us such a beautiful program regarding James Webb. Thanks!

The real question for me is if we are looking at the past and at the state the past was in then how much of the past still exists today as it was especially given that billions of years have transpired and the light that we see left the past as it was over thirteen billion years ago to be seen today.... its like looking at the light that arrives today from NGC7773 which is 400 million light years away and which left the galaxy 400 million years ago which was 130 million years before the first dinosaurs existed here .... and yet it is only visible as light now because it has just arrived after traveling for 400 million years... so is the galaxy NGC 7773 still even there - and what exactly is the past and what exactly is the present given all that we see is what 'was' in the sky and what 'is' all around us as 'now'.. ???.... ie: what does 'now' really look like without what was the past all around it ???

Pictures look great but I'm not impressed by them because the scope is 10 years late and way over budget. The scope should've been twice as big and modular to add more fuel, mirrors and a camera upgrade via some drone or four man crew upgrade mission every 10 years. Basically, we got a 2012 scope in 2022.

If they see the past can they adjust the lens so it sees the big bang happening?
