James Webb Space Telescope
Photographing a planet outside of our solar system is nothing short of amazing.
I can’t even fathom how you just “remove the light from the nearest star” to the planet.
How’s that for a project to be tasked with?
Program Dir @ JWST: “Yeah, we’re gonna need you to come up with a way to filter out the brightest of an infinite number of minuscule light sources so we can photograph a planet that is 36 million light years away. And if you could have that to me by Friday, that would be great.”
I can’t even keep the sun out of my eyes.
