Think of it like Football. the QB has a significant injury to his non-throwing pinky finger, but it doesn't impact his performance, since it's on his non throwing hand.

In this analogy, if the injury doesn't affect performance then it's not significant.

Significant damage to the finger, not significant to the overall performance. It's a clinical, scientific way to state it.

This is my issue with most news not really understanding science or studies, but I'll avoid that topic.

I understand the difference, just don't like the way they tell us, it makes it sound way worse then it is.

Only to some people. lol.

I dunno, I read so many scientific papers, that I don't get too bent out of shape about these phrases. They're specific and appropriate. "noteworthy" doesn't mean catastrophic. Significant basically means noteworthy.

Anyway, I laid out the details earlier. lol.

The light from these galaxies that are 13 billion light years away traveled to us in a straight line, not blocked by other things. With the number of galaxies in just these few pictures, which is a tiny speck of the universe, the amount of open space is mind boggling.

Don't forget to take gravitational lensing into account.

You’d have to be a fool not to take gravitational lensing into account

That a reference to rising/falling interest rates?

I took it more as signing up with a lender where several friends work.

Basically, since the telescope is in and orbit pattern, they decided that the likelihood of this kind of thing can be reduced by not pointing the telescope in the same direction as it is travelling in its orbit.

Like keeping the bugs off your headlights/windshield by driving backwards....
