[ExI] The Record for the Farthest Galaxy just got Broken Again

[spike at rainier66.com]

BillK, this isn’t an image of the record-breaking galaxy, but when I look at the imagery coming back from Webb, really gaze into it, set it as the background screen on my desktop, knowing that every smudge of light in this photo (except the one foreground star) is a collection of billions of stars… I think: there is noooo daaaaamn waaaaaay intelligent life evolved only once in all this, no way, nooooo way.  This leads to familiar ground: intelligent life either figures out a way to live with itself, or it destroys itself.

 

Otherwise… we woulda heard from them by now.
