Former astronaut Mike Massimino explains what NASA can learn from these new astonishing images.

New toy? Weird way to describe a billions dollar scientific achievement.

Scientists who create the things that help us learn about space are absolutely amazing

The James Webb Telescope needs to focus in on the rings around Uranus. There may be a lot of debris, and it might not be what they expected or wanted to see, but it's all for science.

The images are fascinating and gorgeous .

The Artemis moon images/footage are the worst I've seen in my life. Earth-based telescopes put Artemis to shame 100x over. The Chinese missions have produced massively better quality imagery. HD video and photos from Artemis should be blowing our minds but the moon looks absolutely bland, no contrast, almost no craters or features, like it is being deliberately blurred. It's pathetic.

Cool but pointless. Not going to benefit us an any way.
