What is your favorite cool / fun fact about the James Webb Space Telescope?
My husband and I came across this [article](https://www.quantamagazine.org/why-nasas-james-webb-space-telescope-matters-so-much-20211203/) in a Reddit comment recently and now we are hoping to watch the launch on Christmas Eve or when it is finally ready. I am just wondering which fact made you say “holy cow!” When you learned it.

The #MarsHelicopter keeps going, going, going! Ingenuity successfully completed its 18th flight, adding 124.3 seconds to its overall time aloft on the Red Planet. It flew 754 feet (230 meters) at a speed of 5.6 mph (2.5 m/sec) & took images along the way. https://t.co/7DMHj9tbzP https://t.co/XVeMNGGOnQ

As we observe the last full moon of 2021, we're thinking ahead to 2022. This time next year, the Moon looks to gain another robotic visitor, an ice-mining experiment delivered by @Int_Machines that will search for ice & other resources below the surface https://t.co/1nj4lhlAS6 https://t.co/nCCnzOhKQe
