Re: James Webb telescope countdown to launch and first light
Pretty impressive, Isn't it. And they're saying that this vast area represents only a space the size of a grain of sand, viewed if held on the tip of your finger at arm's length.... How can that be possible?
Space must never end. Yet how can that be?
Maybe this should go in the Philosophy section.
