A solar gravitational lens will be humanity's most powerful telescope (2022)

Christian Ready made a great video on his Youtube channel, Launch Pad Astronomy, about NASA's plans for a solar gravitational lens. It's got some great graphics and visualisations, and is accessibly narrated. I was inspired and learnt a lot of new ideas.

I can highly recommend this video, and in case people do not know, Christian Ready is actually a person, not an organization run by religious fundamentalists.

LMAO at that other possibility... I hadn't even considered it but it's almost obvious in hindsight
