The hunters in the family all hunt on family land which doesn't have persimmons, I've checked. Though I'll probably be planting some of my saplings there next fall.

American Persimmons? I've only ever seen Asian varieties in stores. Serves me right for not being obsessed with Trader Joe's like everyone else.
EDIT: according to the website they only have Fuyu.

All I see are saplings and Asian persimmon fruit for sale.

Oh shit I didn't even think about checking the iNaturalist map. Looks like there's a few much older trees in my area, I'll have to go on a hike and see if they still have any fruit.

A surprising amount of organic related statistics fall under logs and bell curves.

I've been excited for it for as long as I can remember, I've followed it closely for most of my life. It was so valued by the scientific community before it even launched that when the Ariane 5 rocket that would carry it into space was being assembled they binned all of their components so they could ensure that this rocket was as high tolerance as possible. Sure any part off their shelves would be within tolerance and probably would have been fine, but they took the extra care to seek out only the best of the best for this launch. It's likely that JWSTs service life was increased by this extra care since the rocket was able to place it almost perfectly on course with very little correction needed.
