Of 100 drugs entering clinical development, only 8 or so are eventually approved. A sankey diagram nicely shows that even though phase II has the highest failure rate, phase I is actually where most drugs get dropped in absolute terms (data from BIO)

From this moment on you will always be able to tell the difference between a Hubble image and a JWST image:

Hubble stars have four spikes in a cross. JWST stars have six in a snowflake. Thank you for your time.

Unbelievable.
