As a child I've always been amazed at stars, comets and any other celestial bodies, not because I was interested in them scientifically or used to question the importance of my existence or the meaning of life, I just loved science-fiction and wanted to learn more about space. History features numerous people who wanted to learn about space like me, but because of the motivations I listed earlier. People like Galileo, Kepler, Newton and countless many others tried to give a meaning to our surroundings and eventually to ourselves as well. Scaling the universe ad figuring out our location in it led them to question the purpose and function of our existence. This effort has not been vanished even in today. For example, James Webb Space Telescope, which is also considered as the successor of Hubble, still tries to explore the universe and help us better understand it and ourselves.
This is the official Youtube channel for James Webb Space Telescope project if you are interested in the recent developments:
