Our Solar System from Voyager - December 14th, 1996.

"After taking spectacular pictures of our Solar System's outer planets, Voyager 1 looked back at six planets to take our Solar System's first family portrait. Here Venus, Earth, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune were all visible across the sky. Each, however, was just a small speck of light, dimmer than many of the stars in the sky."

In the next century, some of our descendants will be living permanently on the Moon and Mars executing almost similar everyday activities as their relations on Earth do. If you are still in doubt of humans living outside the Earth, always remember that space agencies are already putting in the effort to enable our civilization attain such a milestone before the end of this century. Here's how Lunar Gateway will enable space agencies to achieve moon and mars colonization in this century.

There are many nebulas, galaxies, stars, and planets that researchers are interested in, so it’s important for the James Webb Space Telescope to operate efficiently and for data to be easily accessible. 

Over the first year of its observations, engineers behind Webb established the groundwork for how Webb conducts its operations week to week. This is so that, as Webb travels from one point to the next, it will stop at each proposed target in between to maximize the amount of science done. As these targets are observed, that data needs to be archived for future study. 

Data from these observations are available via the Mikulski Archive for Space Telescopes (MAST). The Cartwheel Galaxy is an example of what one might find in these archives for study in greater detail.Learn more about how Webb data reaches Earth: https://bit.ly/3L8XDYg
