I think it's kind of an unfair comparison. Hubble was made decades before Webb was, when we knew a lot less than we do now.

This is like insulting Shakespeare for not writing with a ballpoint pen.

And if I'm not mistaken, hubble looks at different wavelengths of light than JWST, so naturally their observations are going to look different. JWST looks at infrared or near IR while hubble sees mostly visible light.

Yes, and the JWSTs combined mirrors are three times larger than what Hubble has. The different wavelengths of light it can see are only part of the reason the pictures are better.

The IR cameras not only give better pictures of closer objects, it can see much older light that has been redshifted out of the range of Hubble's cameras.

Regardless, both of those machines are amazing creations.

How dare Mozart not use electric guitars even once! (Jokes aside, he probably would have loved the sound)

Not only guitar... I feel like if he'd be alive today, he'd do regular splits with IDM, drone and noise artists to find the limits to how far you can go transforming the sound with current tech. Honestly, I'd love to hear that.

I think you will find he did write with a ball point pen. Blackadder Back and Forth. 13:27 and 27:39.

I actually was trying so hard to think of a way to reference that but couldn't figure out how! Lol!

Though, in my defense, that was in an alternate timeline. ;P
