u know what’s my favourite from the 55 greetings to potential extraterrestrials from the Voyager. the Punjabi one. “Welcome home. It is a pleasure to receive you.” like. look, i know i’m reading too much into this, but. the implication of “welcome home”… that a universe in which we are no longer alone feels more like home. that when we find each other in the emptiness of space it’ll feel like coming home.

Bad: aliens that insist upon referring to human women as “feeeeemales”.
Good: aliens that insist upon dividing humans into binary categories, but the binary in question is based on something we’d regard as trivial and bizarre.
This first image from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope is the deepest and sharpest infrared image of the distant universe to date. Known as Webb’s First Deep Field, this image of galaxy cluster SMACS 0723 is overflowing with detail. Thousands of galaxies – including the faintest objects ever observed in the infrared – have appeared in Webb’s view for the first time. This slice of the vast universe covers a patch of sky approximately the size of a grain of sand held at arm’s length by someone on the ground.
Happy Valentines day
