Wow! 🤩 #Webb is now fully deployed! Congratulations to everyone involved. We can’t wait to see what the telescope has in store for the international astronomy community!
#NASAWebb is fully deployed! 🎉
With the successful deployment & latching of our last mirror wing, that's:
50 major deployments, complete.
178 pins, released.
20+ years of work, realized.
Next to #UnfoldTheUniverse: traveling out to our orbital destination of Lagrange point 2!

This is the stupidest thing you will see today. Tom Boyd is a Tennessee businessman with waaaay more money than sense. He wrote a BLATANT Lord of the Rings rip-off called, and get this shit, “The Bobbins: Outcast to Inner Earth” — you can read the e book. It’s 88 pages of drivel.
The concept behind Ancient Lore Village came from a book series, written by Knoxville businessman Tom Boyd, father of University of Tennessee system President Randy Boyd. trib.al/LWABvdt
But oh no, Tom isn’t satisfied with what I assume to be zero downloads, so he drops $40 million on bringing the Bobbins to life in the form of the worst event space on earth. Did anyone ask for this? Absolutely not. Does Tom care? Obviously not.

Today: MUH RIGHTS *incomprehensible screeching about bill gates or whatever the hell*
Nurses who refuse vaccines shouldn’t be allowed in hospitals. It shows a complete and total disregard for medical science and makes me question their professional competence.
