    Astronomy Picture of the Day Calendar[^] Sadly, they didn't start early enough to let me see - way before 1995 - but it's an impressive catalog of space images anyway!

      They built the JWST in an attempt to photograph the day I was born. At least, it feels like that, some days. :sigh: :-\

                                Yeah, well - all of you can get off my lawn! I was conceived on the evening of the day when the Western Allies crossed the Rhine, according to my mother. The interesting thing is that my father, an officer in the Royal Corps of Signals working in a bunker deep below London, knew about it a day before the the life forms living above ground...

                                  Peering into space is looking backward in time. Since they can observe light emanating from very early in the formation of the universe, they can shift the focus to the day anyone was born during the entire existence of our species. So, there's that. :)
