The universe’s most expensive meteorologist.

But at least he’s light years ahead of the competition.

They can tell the weather on a planet 280 light years away but they can’t tell me if it’s going to rain here tomorrow.................

I see what you did there, lol.

The Giant Magellan Telescope
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giant_Magellan_Telescope

is currently under construction in Chile, will have a mirror of 25.4 meters in dia.

The ELT
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extremely_Large_Telescope

is also currently under construction, also in Chile. It will have a 39.4 meter
Mirror (130 ft.)

Even taking atmospheric distortion into account, these monsters will make Hubble and Webb seem like pea shooters. It will be interesting to see what they will be able to reveal. I can’t wait….😮😀

Excuse me; I must have dozed off.

What kind of water is this? Dem water? For growing potatoes when all Dem's leave this planet when MAGA takes the reins.

The "low over night temp" is 1100 degrees F. What did I miss?
