I know video links aren't preferred but Dr. Becky is worth it, my favorite astrophysicist

+1 for Dr. Becky's expertise and high content quality.

In theory, [] tags for length (19 minute) and starting with a 2-minute summary could be added to the title. In practice, I probably wouldn't bother either.

Just in case of time constraints or what not.

As an aside. These sorts of missions have all sorts of objectives, look for dark matter, exoplanets, probe the origins of the universe. I would like to see one or two planned to "take the coolest pictures ever". Giving all the value and respect to those working in science, I sort of just want to see the pictures first(not cgi).
