In astrophysics news, today is the submission for Step 1 astrophysics Probe-class mission proposals. These proposals for $1B X-ray or Far-IR observatories. https://explorers.larc.nasa.gov/2023APPROBE/programlibrary.html A down-selection to two proposals for Step 2 is expected late next calendar year.

There were petitions to rename JWST but they were denied despite the fact that nobody could really come up with a good defense of Webb's tenure during the Lavender Scare beyond "he didn't know about any employees being fired for their sexual orientation".AnimeIsTrash posted:big lol at it being named after a guy who refused to hire black workers at nasa though ? Webb is usually given credit for racial integration at NASA under JFK/LBJ, do you mean before that?
