LEL, I roughly know what of the tiny white specks in Spain match the locations of ski stations… ⛷ Today I found a small plastic folder on the ground, when exiting the underground. I picked it and turned out to hold a credit card and a identity document, so obviously somene was missing it. I was ina hurry to not be late at work so I put it ona bank so it didn’t look like random trash but a lost object. Thus, I shifted the moral burden of what to do with a credit card and a ID document to whoever found it next. With more time, I would have turned it in at the office of the underground station, as it is very likely that whoever lost it did so before or after using the underground. And now it’s time to go to sleep here in my neck of the woods, and so I say: nighties lovelies! Also: your Bitcoin wallet private key is here… [https://playxo.com/](https://playxo.com/) …and so are all the other 904,625­,697,166­,532,776­,746,648,32­0,380,3­74,280,1­00,293,4­70,930,2­72,690,4­89,102­,837,04­3,110,6­36,674 pairs of public/private keys… Do you feel lucky?

So the bed is stored hanging from the roof…? I guess that’s not a IKEA concept… right…? Today I wnet to order my new glasses, but it has turned that i still have double view on my left eye even after adding al the optical correction. So, since the 24th is a trade holiday at my job, I will go back to the hospital to have this double viewing checked again. Whatever is, it’s not related to the retina as they already checked it and only found the old scars and damages from 15 years ago when I suffered a stroke of macular degeneration… so maybe this means that this time what’s wrong might be something with the cornea or the eye lens. Not cool. 😒 Anyway, it’s bed time for me. Nighties lovelies! Also: a live webcam to a water hole at the Namib desert… [![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/f/c/4/fc43561f9a6aa6f937f7f4f3804f2eb808a846d9.jpeg "Namibia: Live stream in the Namib Desert") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ydYDqZQpim8) It’s relatively easy to see ostriches and orixes, as well as many smaller animals like different species of birds. The sound is poor but image quality is quite steady. The water hole is lcoated at a private animal park and is fed from a borehole; a solar panel and battery pack feed the control system, a water pump to refill the hole if it’s too low and of course the camera and its commnications. ---

I’m having a hard time believing that Webb telescope is actually in space. So many years. Also for those who are not familiar with space: The telescope is named after NASA’s second administrator James Webb, not the British referee Howard Webb, who refereed the 2010 FIFA World Cup Final and 2010 UEFA Champions League Final matches. The more you know. 👨‍🏫 ---

Well, it’s only 344 single points of failure. What could go wrong after 10 billion dollars, 14 years of delay and 2 near cancellations? 🙃 (And just wait until the big public figures that it’s a IR telescope, so it will produce no fancy Hubble-esque pics, at best some false colour imagery of otherwise invisible stuff…) ---

Why even build it if it cant see anything truly new? 🙃 I wonder how the edges of the visible universe would look now… Maybe there would be simulations to see that, in future?

Well, what they will see are very old galaxies when they were very new, so in a way it will be looking at very young stuff, even our universe (they hope) aroudn the 200 million years mark. Conversely, anyone looking at our galaxy from over there, would see our galaxy when it was very young (if it even existed yet). And then anyone as far form those distant galaxies as us but in the opposite direction to us would only see the distant galaxies but not us because the light from our galaxy still wouldn’t have made it there, not even in the whole life of the universe. Or maybe the light of us wouldn’t even be able to catch up with them, if it turns true that space expands faster the emptier it is… Anyway, JWST is designed to last 5 years, probably will last up to 10 years, and it is possible (in theory) to refuel it and extend its mission farther, although the instruments and modules aren’t serviceable so whatever breaks down will remain broken down. And now i’m off to bed. So: nighties lovelies! ---

Or did it all expanded faster than the speed of light from beginning, and the light didnt even came close to us ever? Or the universe was so opaque that the light didnt come to us untill the universe was already very far away and expanding too fast for us to see the stuff far away? The last one seems to be the thing, from what I was able to read and understand. But the background radiation is from the beginning of the universe, so its not completely dark… Maybe Webb will clarify some things. Also how it is when light have so long wavelength that it is nearly non detectable by us?
