people say that the new james-webb telescope images are making them feel small,, but have you ever stood next to a really big tree?
Turns out I’ve been on this website for two years now. How exciting! And even better now that it’s happening right as we’re getting our first images from the James Webb Space Telescope. Looking from Earth, this image is from a point in space smaller than a grain of sand. And look how many beautiful galaxies and stars are in this incredible photo. I look forward to many more incredible pictures, and more discoveries about the wondrous void 🪐 🔭
