Okay quacks, time to go data-mining for anomalies!

Tangent, how would this telescope do turned around and pointed at our deepest oceans? There's infinitely more alien life to actually find and study, and it's still unstudied for good reasons I suppose I'm fishing for.

Wait... what?

We've got tons of oceanographic satellites. James Webb is extremely good at picking up light. The ocean is extremely dark.
