Changing the Name of the James Webb Space Telescope
i preferred it back when telescopes were named after people like hubbl and chandra. James webb did not invent the james webb space telescope. It was specifically meant to be honoring him. But he was not a scientist. He was an administrator at nassau and other places. And if it is true that he was involved in that kind of behavior, then i am completely in favor of changing the name even if it cost a little bit of money.
