This POS has already cost $3.5 billion and is slated to cost *at least*
$6.5 billion before it gets off the ground and I wouldn't be surprised
that it heads towards $10 billion before it gets axed. It needs to be
killed now before it eats up NASA's entire budget. This thing is a
black hole


And just in case the point is missed. Reality is cyclic in character.
Once something has settled into an 'orbit' it isn't possible to
determine the point at which the orbit started. And even
if you could, who cares?

The higher the level of organization, the less the initial conditions
can be determined, and the less they matter. The self-tuning
properties of evolving systems cause them to converge on the
ideal regardless of their starting points.

In fact, the more random and disorganized the initial conditions
the more likely for spontaneous organization.

For instance, when a supernova disturbs a large interstellar cloud
of gas and dust, stars and solar systems are born. Or, cyclic
order emerges from the random disturbance of a totally
random system. THAT IS OUR ORIGIN.

A cloud of uncertainty.

You can't see that in a telescope, there is no 'evidence'
of our origins to find. It's something we can only know.
