Thanks, RV.
Not to make it all about COVID science-denial, but these wonderful vids have reminded me the the best come-back to the ignorant who have believed the fear-mongering and gaslighting is to point out what we're doing on Mars this year.

I have a Bad Astronomy t-shirt from Phil Plait, the first thing I ever bought online. Jeez, that thing must be almost 30 years old.

Re: Hubble and other Telescope Images
One of my joys this last month was that they got Hubble back up and running. I think they need to do a house call from the ISS with replacement parts.
