Bill Nye this so-called science guy also believes that gender is a spectrum. Lol Bill Nye the science guy is a fraud. He’s a comedian with zero degrees in science that was accidentally hired to do a children’s TV show because he was doing a bit as a nerdy scientist at a comedy show and the executive with Asperger‘s didn’t realize he wasn’t a real scientist. True story.

James Webb is already challenging our estimations on how old the universe is! We found so many giant galaxies only 200 million years after the big bang, in which we didn't even know what possible! Things are going to change in astronomy in a few years

Just thought of a question for anyone to answer, is the transitory method of identifying exoplanets limited by the sheer time we've been looking for them? Ie. Say we've roughly been watching for 30 years, is any planet with an orbit greater than 30 earth years guaranteed to not have been identified? If so could that not raise the estimated number of exoplanets by a lot, maybe even orders of magnitude?
