Wish they wouldn’t waste Telescope time on nearby (relatively) objects that are not in the focal depth of a multi-million dollar space camera

Titan is far enough out that focal depth doesn’t really factor into it; as far as JWST is concerned it is at infinity. Which does raise the question of why it’s so blurry, though

You know, upon further self thought, maybe nasal blurred it out because it has human settlements. 🤔
