    Oh this was an amazing production. I absolutely can't watch things like this without a big smile and occasionally even tears at the magnificence of these endeavors. NASA and its many compatriot organizations has to be our finest achievement as a species. Thank you all so much for these incredible uplifting moments of wonder and awe. You inspire people to be better.
  • @bazpearce9993
    I love imaging Jupiter and it's moons. Only a modest setup. A 5" folded light scope and a reasonably priced camera work really well together.
  • @joshcryer
    Worth. Every. Penny. TY NASA and the JWST team. Proud of you guys. Incredible achievement of mankind.
  • @blujay9191
    Great video. "I could not believe that people actually got paid to study things that were that cool." Loved that so much. More like this please.
  • @TallDude73
    You forgot Space Odyssey 2010: "ALL THESE WORLDS ARE YOURS – EXCEPT EUROPA. ATTEMPT NO LANDING THERE." 🙂
  • @shaddouida3447
    James Webb has the ability to look very far into space, and therefore, very far into the past. Indeed, although light travels at the dizzying speed of 300,000 kilometers per second, the Universe is so vast that some images that reach us today are billions of years old!
  • @JackMack465
    So excited about the Europa Clipper mission. It's awesome how JWST is helping us to understand more about the planets and moons in our own solar system.
  • @TheTanman412
    Very well produced. High school science class deserves this kind of educational content.
  • @Quebster
    Well done, fantastic video! Just watching over a lunch break, didn’t expect to return to the office so inspired and full of awe at our universe. Keep up the great work, the production was top notch. This deserves to be shown in classrooms around the world
  • @Marc_Gagne
    My name will be orbiting Europa on the Clipper. YAY!!!
  • @jethro377
    Really well done, but I am laughing at the "True Crime" music in the background
  • @klyanadkmorr
    I always have the U2 song Zooropa going on in my head hearing it as EUROPA!!☺ Being a 2001: A Space Odyssey fan and the sequel 2010 I have always considered our system a 'failed' twin star system and something wildly shot thru and split the gas giants and pieces later went inner orbit into the sun finally after making the asteroid belt, big piece slamming into Venus knocking it over and another giving Earth it's moon. My non scientific head canon
  • Me as a kid: Mum! I want to go to Europa! Mum: We have Europa at home *show the map of Europe
  • The JADES team has found the new farthest galaxy humans have ever seen: JADES-GS-z14-0. This source, which is found at a redshift of 14.32, is so distant we're seeing it as the Universe was when it was only *290 million years old.*
  • @Erik-rp1hi
    Maybe ask for JWST time when the moons line up and the tidal forces are the greatest? Maybe then the geysers will show up.
