Hadn’t it been a long while since they’ve released any Webb pics?

What’s up with that?

From South Korean craft Danuri
========================

Danuri, South Korea’s first ever spacecraft to orbit the Moon, has sent back stunning images of the lunar surface and the Earth beyond.

The spacecraft – which has the official name of Korea Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter, but is better known as Danuri – left Earth on board a SpaceX rocket in August. It has been travelling towards the Moon ever since……

Look at those shoddy CGI footprints. All the money must've went to Avatar 2. Sarcasm off.

Galaxies shockingly similar to our own appear to have been found near the beginning of the universe.

The discovery was made by scientists using Nasa’s James Webb Space Telescope, which is able to look deep into the history of the cosmos.

As scientists did, they found galaxies with “stellar bars”. Those are long features of stars that reach from the middle of galaxies out into their furthest discs.

Those galaxies were around when the universe was just 25 per cent of its current age, the researchers said.

Such barred galaxies have been seen before, in our own Milky Way. But seeing them this early on in the development of the cosmos will need a rewriting of our galaxies of how galaxies evolve.

The extra detail of the JWST appears to have been the breakthrough required to see early galaxies in enough detail to detect those bars.

Previous observations by the Hubble Space Telescope showed the galaxy EGS-23205 to be an intriguing smudge – but new images from JWST show it as a precise swirl with extending bars……..

A green comet that will be visible from Earth for the first time since the Ice Age appears to be undergoing unusual changes.

Comet ZTF has created excitement in recent weeks as it has hurtled towards Earth, coming close enough to the planet that it should be visible to the naked eye. It will be the first close approach for 50,000 years, and will reach its closest point on 1 February……

So, this is how the Zombie Apocalypse begins.

So, this is how the Zombie Apocalypse begins.

I've come to the conclusion that the people that want a zombie apocalypse to happen are the ones that want to be able to murder people without feeling any remorse.

Well.....yeah!

Remorse isn't even in my top ten, legal consequences is my sole deterrent. I have ZERO desire to meet The Albino!!!!

So the only reason you don't kill someone is because you don't think you could get away with it?

Every other creature on this planet kills...we're the only one that has a built in system of consequence for doing so. If that's what keeps him in line...more power to him, need more people out there like that if you ask me.

And yes...I also fear the Albino...season 1 episode 6 of "Banshee" should be mandatory watching in schools everywhere.
