No worries, you can start over. Just un-install the app and reinstall it .

Reply to Royal Astronomical Society rebukes Nasa over alleged homophobic roots of Webb Telescope name by EdwardHeisler

Here we go again. This kind of meaningless change pisses me off.

For example US Congress came in and did some stuff and a telescope I work on had to change its name from Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) which was used for at least a decade to Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST). While it was done for a good cause ( the actual telescope was named after a famous woman physicist) , I doubt if common people will ever care enough. LSST is unlikely to generate as much hype as JWST. On the other hand it pissed off a lot of astronomers who really care about the project.
