Indeed. Who was she and why is a telescope being named after her (rhetorical question)? A video on how instruments are named for certain people would be great. More details about how the technological challenges of the coronascope and platform stability are to be addressed will be welcome as well as what kinds of sensors will be needed to get the desired data, and any other problems not mentioned so far. Also, how crowded is the Lagrange point right now, and how crowded can they get before there’s no more room due to various instruments blocking each other’s view? I mean, we know that Space Is Really Really Big but the Lagrange point is limited.

Think of parking a car on planet earth. How many cars before it’s crowded? That’s about how crowded it’s getting at Lagrange point.

@@zanzibart3 the problem is, I don’t have enough years left to see the results from this telescope.

When I was about 12 and first decided I wanted astronomy and astrophysics to be my life's work, I never thought we'd be able to directly image an exoplanet, whether with a ground-based, or space-based telescope. Heck, the material at the time was still fuzzy on whether our data indicated real exoplanets. Almost 30 years later and this is where we're at. So when the HWO launches, imagine where we'll be with our imaging capabilities and machine learning capabilities to better enhance our data analysis. Fantastic.

Never heard of an IFU before. How amazing! Would be very cool to see a video about how they work. I can't even imagine how you actually get a spectrum at every pixel.

Dr Becky's passion for the subject permeates every part of her videos, and it's contagious. I love it.

There are three reasons why I have been a fan of Dr. Becky for so long: 1: the eyes, as deep as the universe (supernova!) 2: the accent and cadence, that help you remember how amazing and exciting space science really is 3: the wonderful choice of topics, conciseness, precision, and simplicity towards their explanation. ❤

The 2040s huh? Well, in 2046 I’ll celebrate my 100th birthday. Assuming I’m still alive for said celebration!

This is interesting. I have worked on spacecraft, including both NASA and military, from the late 1970s. The long timeframes to research, design and build these devices can often be daunting to individuals. Sometimes, because of funding issues among others, there is a stop and start cycle. For example, I worked on the design of what became the ISS in the 1980s. When I started on that project, I had a bunch of older colleagues who worked on it in the 1970s. Construction in space finally began in the late 1990s. As with most space science projects, one is always trying to do something that hasn't been done before. This includes the instruments, of course, but also the spacecraft structure and mechanisms themselves. From the inception of the Landsat, it was recognized that handling and disseminating the massive amounts of data was important, thus the Earth Observing System Data and Information System (EOSDIS) was developed. It was considered a big innovation at the time. This new satellite sounds like it may generate much more data. Fortunately, the idea of putting specialized processing in the cloud is well advanced. It started with large engineering simulations and is now in full swing with AI.

Yes, Nancy please. Good storyline and rich content, as usually. Thanks.

hi becky !! a video about the NGR would be great !! thanks for the proposal !! and congrats for your tremendous work !! love it !!

By the current parameters being used to classify a planet inhabitable, Venus would meet the parameters from outside of our solar system. The "Goldilocks Zone" is pretty much useless. From the things we know about the Earth and it's twin Venus, the difference between habitable and inhabitable can be very slight. The chances of finding another are infinitesimal.

Happy Birthday wonderful, beautiful lady, Dr. Becky!!

Becky, I really enjoy your reporting on astrophysics science and news. Please help me understand why searching for exoplanets is so important. Isn't understanding the observation of dark matter, the expansion of the universe and the possibility of bridging the gap between quantum mechanics and general relativity more important to physics? Given the number of stars in the universe, don't we already expect there to be habitable exoplanets? What is the value to humanity of finding one?

Id love to see a video on Nancy grace roman telescope! Also, do you know about kepler 22b?It is said to be in the habitable zone by NASA in 2011. Also Dr Becky, Can you make a video on how we heard the first sound after the big bang and how it was decoded for humans to hear? It would mean a lot! Thank you for the amazing videos and hoping your birthday went great!

Great Video 👏👏👏

Papyrus SNL clip was fire

The spectrometer on JWST I believe was designed with analyzing very small targets in mind like exoplanets. The spectrometer has these MEMS shutters that allow very small patches of the incoming light to be spesctroscopically analyzed

I propose we take pictures of our galactic planets, and trade with folks from other galaxies. Save some travel time. Re cameras: Freeze the secondary mirror down to -80 (dry ice) to get twice the resolution. Thanks doctor. Enjoyed the show.

Having to “wait” for a planet to cross its star isn’t even the biggest drawback of the transit detection method! A bigger problem is that in order to even be able to detect a planet using transit in the first place, the exoplanet’s orbital plane has to be aligned perfectly from our vantage point. But… the orbital planes of solar systems in the galaxy are a completely random affair (with respect to the plane of the galaxy). As such, if some solar system say had an earth sized planet located 1AU from its start (like earth is from our sun), there is less than a 0.5% chance that the planet’s orbital plane is aligned such that we could detect it from earth. In other words, it makes no difference how long we wait for the planet to cross its star since from our vantage point we would never see it crossing its star.

Love those earrings!

5:30 finally i got how its working.

What if that star doesn’t emit that light spectrum or a spectrum we can’t detect?
