NASA just released a new short video regarding the James Webb Telescope and provides some amazing facts and Launch date... There is no narration, but there is displayed text and a nice music background...along with some scintillating scenes from the Universe!!!
From NASA:
"The space science community, this year Bring the much-anticipated launch of NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope. Webb promises a multitude of discoveries related to our understanding of the universe. Webb will be the first telescope to detect light from the most distant galaxies in the Universe. These first galaxies formed about 13.5 billion years ago, only 300 or so million years after the Big Bang.
Webb carries advanced technologies to tackle some of the most fundamental questions about the Universe. Launching such a large telescope into space is an incredible engineering challenge. Fully deployed, Webb is too large to fit inside any rocket.
Engineers designed it to be folded, like origami, to fit inside the Rocket After launch, controllers on the ground deploy Webb remotely. The James Webb Space Telescope will be Used to explore. To challenge theories. To see sights yet unseen. To unfold the beauty and mystery in the Universe, To peer into atmospheres of planets orbiting distant stars.
It is Equipped with the largest primary mirror ever to be flown in space. It is more than 6 times the size of the Hubble Space Telescope primary mirror. This Telescope will change our view about The Universe." Credit: NASAs Goddard Space Flight Center.
Enjoy, my Brothers and Sisters!!!
