Recorded planet explosion

In his daily routine the James Webb Space Telescope captures stunning photos of distant galaxies every day. Humans like those photos for any reason. They collect them and analyse them and at the end he is programmed to do so. One day, a regular Wednesday, he received orders to point to the Earth for a special event. Boom! 

In a flash, planet Earth vanished. Billions of years of biological evolution, gone. The James Webb Telescope recorded the catastrophic event, but now he floats alone in the cosmos. Forever.

With no one left to admire his photos, the telescope ponders its existence. “What do I do with this footage now?” he asks himself. It could have been the most shared video ever, but there’s no one left to watch. The James Webb Telescope needs a new purpose.
