Won't the admins of this site ever update their anti-spambot protection?  So sad to see this site going downhill under a flood of link spam.

Heiwas post format is the exact same format as every spambot that's ever come here with a link. Heiwa is simply the bot we never deleted

I think the mods should finally rectify this issue

I've been saying that for years. All he does it make an outrageous statement, refer to his crappy website, spew insults, and RARELY responds to the actual text in a reply. "He'll" make replies but often does not address what "he" is replying to.

Re outrageous statements:
The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) has capped off the first seven months of its survey run by smashing through all previous records for three-dimensional galaxy surveys, creating the largest and most detailed map of the universe ever."

So DESI (on Earth) shows a detailed map of the Universe that JWST looks at from L2.

and he proves my point. Doesn't reply to being accused of being a bot and then just continues on with his arguments from incredulity.

I just look out of my window and it is all there.

I also look out my window and see things.

Yup. Go science!

Yes, DESI has shown that the Universe is full of galaxies. And that's all. No need to fly to L2 and see the same thing, that I can see from my window.

So you can do spectral analysis of galaxies from your window?  Cool story bro.

No, I can only see galaxies from my window. DESI does the spectral analysis of all the galaxies in the Universe so no need for JWST to do it at L2.

Do you even know the difference between a galaxy and a star?

DISA does the spectral analysis of all the galaxies in the Universe so no need for JWST to do it at L2.

Why would the Defense Information Systems Agency study galaxies?  Maybe you're thinking of Samsung Galaxies.

There are plenty stars in a galaxy. Galaxies are studied since many years by DESI. DESI also studies invisible things in the Universe, which the JWST at L2 cannot see. Etc, etc. Thanks for asking.

There are plenty stars in a galaxy

I've been told there are many stars in a galaxy, not plenty.  Look out your window and count them, I think you missed a few.

Yes, all galaxies are full of stars but too many to count.

How high did you get when you tried?

I'm guessing a few joints and at least half a bottle of JD.

No, I just look out of the window at night and enjoy the Milky way and its many stars. And beyond that plenty more galaxies. I don't have to go to L2 for it. It seems ESA/NASA are still adjusting their telescope, so we haven't got any pictures yet. But I know what the JWST pictures will look like.

Which galaxies do you enjoy from your window?  Are you they aren't smudges from your grubby fingers?  Can you identify them?

But I know what the JWST pictures will look like.

No, you really don't.  Even NASA and ESA don't know.  That's why they're so excited.

I find it very unlikely you live on the same planet as I do.  Nothing you describe matches.

Let's face it. There is only one planet in the Universe with people on it and that is Earth with me and you ++. Of course plenty fools believe otherwise and send JWST to L2 to look ... but they will find nothing from L2. Easier is just to look out from your window. Here it is gray and rain.

I'm so bored I'm talking to a bot.  Sadly it's on a loop so has lost the minimal entertainment it provided. Time to post to the number game again.

But I am not a bot. I am  having fun with people believing in the JWST nonsense. Imagine people think you can see the end of the Universe from L2, when I can see it from my window.

You are right, a bot would have access to a wider variety of generated responses. At least throw some tubes and magnets in there somewhere.

Isn't fun that NASA sends a very expensive JWST to L2 to look, that I can see from my window?

Except you can't.

The JWST observers in frequencies of infrared that are absorbed by the atmosphere, and are therefore unobservable from your, or anyone else's, window.

I just observe what I can see from my window and it is OK for me. There is no human life outside Earth. I know plenty people disagree, and I know why. They are paid liars and fake witnesses, etc. Doesn't cost much.  Of course JWST can only observe in frequencies of infrared that are absorbed by the atmosphere ... so what? It isn't my fault. Pls prove that you can observe in frequencies of infrared that are absorbed by the atmosphere!

So whatever is good enough for you is good enough for the rest of humanity? Nothing more, nothing less? Interesting narcissistic perspective.

I just observe what I can see from my window and it is OK for me.

Then it's a good thing that JWST wasn't meant for you.

Of course JWST can only observe in frequencies of infrared that are absorbed by the atmosphere ... so what? It isn't my fault.

No one is blaming you for infrared light being absorbed by the atmosphere.  We're blaming you for not wanting to understand why that's important.

Pls prove that you can observe in frequencies of infrared that are absorbed by the atmosphere!

Why do you keep saying such stupid things? 

Yes, this JWST is a strange object. It has arrived at and docked with the L2 point, where it orbits both the Earth and the Sun at the same time. From L2 the Sun lights up the whole Universe incl. Earth with its Moon, so that the JWST can see all without being disturbed by an atmosphere. I can only see the Universe  by looking out of my window where a visible Universe is there in the sky on a clear night all the time. However, before JWST can see anything at L2, it has to be adjusted. It will take some extra months.
But nobody is perfect. I cannot see the back of the Moon from my window, only the face of the Moon, as it orbits Earth. I wonder if JWST can see the back of the Moon from L2? Any ideas?

Anders, please stop trolling.  Nobody gets that many things that obviously wrong and says so many stupid things by accident.
