So they're able to launch a $10 billion dollar telescope with no problems but AV technology eludes them

Hey if NASA. If Canada was 13.8 billions light years away then they would be finding getting the stream up much easier!

Okay I care way more about NASA being good at space science than a/v operations but seriously, confirm your sources before putting them live

Spectrography works at galactic distances, the more granular you can make it the finer you can tune it

That chart they had in the background looked like it had some crazy amount of detail for an exoplanet observation.

This is why I like watching the uncut broadcasts from the Apollo missions. You get awkward things like this a lot for being exploratory badasses. I think my favorite is when Neil Armstrong, a few days into the lunar coast, casually started nerding out about the history of cartography with Mike Collins and CAPCOM.

I think I am just as excited for the imaging of planets in our solar system as exoplanets. It'll be amazing to get more information on bodies with water like Europa.
