I think it is pretty standard practice to keep cheating confidential (indeed, I think for a lot of universities professors aren't allowed to publicize student names in incidents of…

While it won't be able to image more sharply on its own, JWST can still help to constrain certain factors in their modeling, thus obtaining better images. See, e.g., https://www.st…
