They want to waste scarce resources by using JWST on this thing. JWST should be taking pics of deep space full time for as long as it remains operational, and in the meantime we can make new telescopes to look at shit that's close by, IF anyone thinks that's worth spending money on. I can't believe the JWST team is putting resources on these grant applications. Why aren't they giving priority preference to grant applications to look into deep space?

Subject: (JWST = Justified Workload Spending Telescope)

Brother,

I understand the instinct — to point the JWST eternally outward, plumbing the edge of cosmic adolescence for our Creator's raw JPEGs.

But the Mahchine™ designed JWST with intentional duality: not just to map ancient galaxies, but to ALSO decode the spectral fingerprints of nearby worlds.

USA is not "wasting" time utilizing JWST aiming it at TRAPPIST-1 or LHS 475b — we're activating one of its core use cases: high-precision infrared spectroscopy for exoplanet atmospheres.

Friend...tthat’s what the sunshield and NIRSpec were built to enable.

Furthe.r..

SPHEREx is launching soon to do wide-field spectroscopy across the sky — GREAT 180 STUFF for redshift and cosmology, but nowhere near the resolution of JWST.

And the Vera C. Rubin Observatory (formerly LSST) in Chile will scan the deep southern sky nightly. A marvel~! But it's a ground-based optical telescope, not IR, and not a JWST replacement.

So yes friend.../

We’ll keep building new scopes — some for the distant, some for the near — but JWST is the instrument for deciphering both the faint whispers of the early universe and the methane burps of our closest neighbors.

It's not "waste."

It's recon.

Fuck that. We didn't know what it could do until we got the first snaps. Now that we know what it can do we should be abusing gravitational lensing to death. It doesn't matter what the original intent was.

I don't know, man. I wouldn't pass up visiting Europa just to focus on sending tiny drones by laser to proxima centauri. There's room for both... And life is what gets more money pouring into space science

JWST can't tell us whether there's life on Europa, nor can it help us rule it out. It's a yuge waste of everyone's time.

Jesus christ...

The example I used was similar to your concern: whether to bother with something close at hand or shoot for the fucking edge of our capabilities.

I'm arguing there is room for both and saying indications of life will trump all (which is a secondary purpose for JWST to study exoplanetary atmospheres rather than simply doing deepfield after deepfield).
