The James Webb Space Telescope is almost fully calibrated…<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h1>\n

Today Another Stunning Update…<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

We have been tracking the deployment of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST)<\/strong> closely this year. T<\/span><\/span><\/span>he JWST is the most complex telescope ever constructed.<\/strong> What’s more, it was launched to a destination about one million miles from Earth <\/span>back in February<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

We call its destination the LaGrange Point 2 (L2)<\/strong>. It’s on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun. That makes it incredibly cold, which is great for the telescope’s performance. <\/span><\/span><\/span>JWST is currently going through the calibration process. We expect the first fully calibrated images to come back as early as July.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

That said, JWST has sent a few images back already. They aren’t as advanced as what we will get once the telescope is fully calibrated. But they are still incredible. <\/span><\/span><\/span>We can see just how powerful JWST is by comparing a recent image from the JWST of the same spot in a galaxy to images from older infrared telescopes…<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The Same Image from Different Telescopes<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

As we can see, these images are of the same objects. We can see the string of four objects from the lower left to the upper right of the image. The only difference is that different telescopes took them over the last two decades. <\/span><\/span><\/span>We are looking at images of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC).<\/strong> It’s a satellite galaxy of the Milky Way. <\/span><\/span><\/span>And get this – LMC is about 160,000 light-years away from Earth.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The image on the left is from the WISE telescope back in 2003<\/strong>. The one in the middle is from Spitzer in 2008<\/strong>. And on the right is an image just sent back by the JWST. <\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span>We can see just how advanced the JWST is when compared to previous telescopes. The difference in resolution is dramatic. <\/span><\/span><\/span>JWST’s images are only going to get clearer with even higher resolution. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Here’s the most exciting part…<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

NASA hasn’t yet told us what the JWST’s first scientific target will be. It has been very secretive about what the telescope will focus on first. <\/span><\/span><\/span>So we can look forward to more information from NASA within the next month or two. It will be very exciting to see the next images that the telescope reveals…<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

New Opportunities Are Emerging For Citizens of The World.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

Freedom and democracy<\/strong> may appear to be struggling to stay alive in America, but there may be a knock-out punch ready to be released. The evolution of the blockchain-enabled metaverse is going to enable the 'Citizens of the World'<\/strong> to gain their own Freedom<\/strong> by democratizing power and creating a new world with new rules, new players, and new opportunities. For 99.99% of us, the metaverse will improve our real-world lives through the democratization of power and opportunity.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Along with the major long-term trend of society towards decentralization<\/strong> and smaller-scale organizations, there are new opportunities developing to help 'Preparers' in the cryptocurrency sector. Businesses are beginning to issue their own Crypto Coins that can be traded on Cryptocoin Exchanges.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Markethive.com<\/a> for example will be releasing its HiveCoin (HIV) in the coming weeks. It has tremendous upside potential that is outlined in a Video by Founder Tom Prendergast, "Entrepreneur Advantage…<\/a>".<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Not only that, if you go to their website and register as a FREE Member, you will be given 500 HiveCoins<\/strong> for "FREE"<\/strong><\/em> along with access to several Earning Opportunities and online tools to increase your HiveCoin balance.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Be sure to check it out today – Markethive.com<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
