While I concur with Dr. Ian that the description of Earth's "first rotation", in which OP shrewdly points out that Diameter = 2 x Radius and that 12 =12, is indeed utter gibberish; I'm now on the edge of my seat to hear OP's scientific dissection of Earth's second rotation. This cliffhanger has...

So basically, the JWST images make a nebula look like a solid 9, only to swipe right and later discover the nebula is actually just a 6.

No mention in the article of whether these new finds are tidally locked. Seems like many recently discovered exoplanets are.

I'll share again my comment on another Starlink article from March 17: "Perhaps I'm missing some of the value of Starlink to human advancement and space exploration (if so, I'm all ears!) but I can't shake the thought that the "Starlink megaconstellation" is already marring the night skies for...
