Now I don’t look at reddit unless theres some drama, like mods getting purged, then I’d go there and enjoy the drama.

…with the James Web Telescope looking for sources of artificial light to identify potential intelligent life, and the news this week of Perseverance searching for microbial life on Mars it feels like we are getting closer to a major discovery.
