WOW! Heavenly Glories stream from the James Webb Telescope

Last night, I tuned into a TV program on Fox discussing the building of NASA's James Webb Telescope...totally new to me. So I searched online to find some of the images captured by this amazing piece of engineering. I simply could not believe the beauty of the universe and wondered at those in heaven...do they have a front row seat to this kind of jaw dropping scenery? I don't know but the thought of it makes me deliriously happy! 

"With Webb, the science team can now see where stars formed and how they are distributed, in a similar way to how the Hubble Space Telescope is used to study local galaxies. Webb’s view provides a unique opportunity to study star formation and the inner workings of infant galaxies at such an unprecedented distance." Rob Landers, Florida Today January 28, 2025

Here are some of the images I found in Landers' article (link below) for more images and information about current NASA ventures into galaxies as far as 35 billion light years away. 

NGC 1559 resides approximately 35 million light-years away in the
little-observed southern constellation Reticulum (The Reticule).

I am no expert in the science of telescopes and the cosmos, 

just a huge admirer. 

So once again, this is where I captured today's information and images. Enjoy!

47

It is Friday January 17th. In three days, Donald J. Trump will be sworn in as the 47th President of the United States. Although in his farewell speech, Joe Biden said "Democracy is fragile", the Constitution--to which President Trump will swear allegiance to defend and protect-- is not based on fragile precepts. The United States is not a direct democracy in the true sense where each person dictates the rule of law. The framers believed such a system would be subject to tyranny of the majority. Rather, they gave us a Constitutional republic with a representative government, with the good people electing good legislators to represent us in Congress.

The framers knew we would struggle to keep balance in our country, that we would tangle with foreign entities and be threatened from within and without. The document they left us in enduring. It has endured for 237 years despite internal and external forces trying to render it null and void. And so, America endures. The Constitution. The Constitution of the United States. It is a beautiful and God inspired document providing the citizens of the United States with the freedoms needed to live life to the fullest. 

The preamble illustrates the wisdom and strength of the founders' vision for this great country:

"We the people of the United States of America, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare and secure the blessings of freedom to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States."

These beautiful beginning words, should lead all Americans to the point of pride in our founders' work and create in us the diligence to encourage each other in the wisdom of the document they forged. We need to know and understand our Constitutional rights. We need to teach each other kindly in these rights. 

May the days of division come to an end as we unite, truly unite as one people under God living in a land governed for the people and by the people. Donald Trump is a fighter, a bigger than life leader who has not given up his belief in the people or "the nation conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal." Neither should we.

Now he is to become President of the United States, again. Only the second man in history to serve non-consecutive terms.  May God bless Donald J. Trump, 45 and 47th President of the United States. And may God bless America.
