When the James Webb Telescope (JWST) launches on December 22, it will be on its way to becoming the biggest observatory beyond Earth set to enhance our understanding of the deep universe.
Good early evening my Brothers and Sisters and for you folks who have a penchant for science and especially space and the Universe, I bring you an awesome science video that details "How NASA’s Webb Telescope Will Transform Our Place in the Universe."
Since December 3rd, when this video was posted, there have been some 625,056 views of this video and each of you will add to that number...
Quanta Magazine Published this description:
"NASA's James Webb Space Telescope is the most powerful telescope in the history of humanity, and one of the most ambitious engineering projects ever attempted. It will witness the birth of stars and galaxies at the edge of time and probe alien skies for signs of life. In this new documentary from Quanta, JWST’s lead scientists and engineers discuss what inspired the telescope, how it was built, the extraordinary challenges it will face upon launch, and its potential discoveries."

I highly recommend that this video be watched FULL SCREEN WITH THE SOUND LOUD ENOUGH TO BE CLEARLY HEARD! It is almost 15 minutes long, so pick a time when it is convenient to watch... You will not be disappointed...
Best to you all,
Kerry

The big brains haven't yet gotten through all of the Hubble data -- thankfully computing has modernized -- going to need a lot of computing power

Let us hope that after it is launched all goes well in making it ready for duty!!! Everything in the set-up has to work perfect - 100%!
