So I setup a list of maybe 30 highly active matrix rooms organized into Matrix Spaces on the QOTO Matrix server (though you can access them from any spaces enabled matrix server).
Just login to your existing matrix account on any server, or register for a free one at https://element.qoto.org (registration open to everyone). Then join any of the following spaces (make sure you turn on spaces in your config under labs first).
Please let me know if you have any rooms you'd like to suggest to be added to any of the below spaces. Also, feel free to create your own space and share it.
#QOTO_space:qoto.org - Rooms related to QOTO itself
#Fediverse_space:qoto.org - Various rooms from matrix servers that have a fediverse hosted as part of the same community.
#STEM_space:qoto.org - A collection of general topic STEM rooms like Electronics, Physics, Math, etc.
#Regional_space:qoto.org - Rooms specific to Countries, towns or regions around the world.
#Projects_space:qoto.org - Channels for various open-source projects
#linux-distros_space:qoto.org - Rooms for various linux distribtuion flavors.

The European Astro Pi Challenge is a great opportunity for young people to send their programs to space.
You can mentor a young person or group of young people up to the age of 19 from ESA member states and selected countries and take part in #MissionZero.

@redfrog Yes they should pay, however i was thinking the question is rather black and white.
it is not an easy question to answer.
@redfrog This appears ratehr blackand white, some people may not be able to have the vaccine for a medical reason, so if they are not vaccinated for that reason should they be punished.
You could then ask should smokers pay their medical bills when they know the risks, same for drinkers, but both can be addictive so harder to quit.
Perhaps there are too many factors.
@amerika yeah and they think there may be other wrecks even deeper
@fxdm This was on science daily a while back, a really awesome project and worthy of being mentioned to remind people about it.

I am sure we can aim a ground based telescope at the JWST and take a photo.
