Information doesn't come from mass or energy, it only comes from a mind 👍 The instruction book of life is the most complicated, intricate, intelligent, information packed into EVERY SINGLE LIVING CELL. Even Darwin, from his own statements, would not believe in Darwinian evolution today with the knowledge we have of the complexity of a single cell now- irreducible complexity. The same God that wrote that book inspired a book for you to read, to help you in the life He gave you, intentionally, of His own free will. That's the best selling book of all time- the Bible. Read the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John- the eyewitnesses to Jesus' life and sacrifice for YOU.

I enjoyed your making fun of the phrase "Bursty star formation". But that is the way language works. You have to give something a "name" or "it" can't be talked about. Think about the name "Big Bang". This is actually a derogatory term given to "it" by its detractors. By giving "it" the name "Big Bang", you have given "it" a "handle" as the CBers (Citizen's Band radio) would have called it 50 years ago. Now, we can talk about "it" because "it" now has an agreed upon name, even if "it" is a silly name. Shakespeare said, "A rose by any other name would smell just as sweet." What he meant is that if we call a rose a "turd biscuit" it would still smell the same. Calling the process something silly like "Bursty star formation" does not undermine the serious attempt to differentiate the process from other, standard types of star formation. Think of it another way, would you rather it be called, "The Stevenson-Hewitt post-modern analogous rapid aggregation stellar nursery model" or "Bursty star formation." Sometimes, silly is superior to superfluous. Thanks for the smile.

Re: the excessive compression on Simon’s dialogue: it’s really difficult to lower the volume of his breathing because the original audio was compressed too hard. It has nothing to do with phase, professional engineers record dialogue in mono (his voice was recorded in mono, correct?) Best option: create a frequency profile of the breaths, attenuate those freqs with an eq and side chain it to a downward expander with very fast attack & decay. Flux makes a dedicated downward expander but you can get the same results with Fabfilter Pro-MB.

I've always been a bit of a space nerd kinda geeking out on the photos before JWST. Seeing the first deep field view from JWST and the picture of the Pillars of Eternity made me fall in love with space and our universe all over again. Can't wait to see what else we can find out there and what the next space telescope will be able to do.

Hi, I'm sorry to bring this up, but your audio seems to have an issue. It sounds like you have exposed hard walls around you, accross each other. There appears to be a short hard echo that dies out slowly (like ~0.5 seconds). They are more prominant on certain frequencies, around the frequency of your speach. It seems the sound can bounse multiple times and still be picked up by the microphone. It reduces the clarity of your voice and gets iritanting in the long run. You may know all of this already, but you may add acoustic panels or heavy cloth on the walls at the points of primary reflection. I don't see your microphone, but you may consider bringing it closer to you, increasing signal to echo ratio. If you have already treated your walls, it's possible the echo comes from your floor and roof. Your production quality for video is so high, it would be a shame, if your sound were to lagg behind. Anyways. Thank you for your videos. They are generally very well made.

Some scientific disciplines create really highfalutin names for their concepts, and use terminology that’s little more than inscrutable technical jargon to anyone who is not in that field. But in cosmology it’s like, “what should we call the enormous space circle that’s so dense not even light can escape? Eh, I dunno let’s just call it - black hole.” And when you’ve got a burst of bursty stars bursting - well, bud, that there’s a bursty star formation. Absolutely mind blowing concepts, all revealed by highly technical science, but the names - straightforward af.

We continue to discover just how useful the JWST is and how it is a breakthrough for all involved to overcome the daunting task of stepping up to successfully address the complexities of conceiving, planning, building and delivering the planet to its correct place in space. And now we have an instrument that will help us supersede our considerable knowledge about the Cosmos to date by proving how much we don't yet know. It's just the greatest of success stories in so many ways. Congrats to all, and may they have the good fortune to see JWST last for years of service.
