2025年1月24日 · The Webb Space Telescope is the largest, most powerful and most complex telescope ever launched into space . It's design and development history stretches back before the Hubble Space Telescope was launched.

During Webb's launch, deployment and commissioning, this page tracked Webb's current state in detail on its journey from Earth to entry into its L2 halo orbit through all steps of its deployment, during its cooldown to operational temperatures, through its instrument commissioning and finally to the delivery of its first science images.

2024年8月22日 · Launch Date. Webb was launched on on December 25, 2021 on board an Ariane 5 rocket from Ariane Space Spaceport in French Guiana. Webb was transported there by ship through the Panama Canal from Northrup’s facility in California where it under went final integration and test. Vehicle. The James Webb Space Telescope was launched on an Ariane 5 ...

The James Webb Space Telescope will be a giant leap forward in our quest to understand the Universe and our origins. Webb will examine every phase of cosmic history: from the first luminous glows after the Big Bang to the formation of galaxies, stars, and planets to the evolution of our own solar system.

During Webb's launch, ~1,000,000 mile journey to L2, deployment, commissioning and through the release of its first images, this interactive tracked Webb's current state in realtime and mapped out the future steps.

2000年1月1日 · The James Webb Space Telescope (sometimes called JWST) is a large, infrared-optimized space telescope. The observatory launched into space on an Ariane 5 rocket from the Guiana Space Centre in Kourou, French Guiana on December 25, 2021.

Webb will be the premier observatory of the next decade, serving thousands of astronomers worldwide. It will study every phase in the history of our Universe, ranging from the first luminous glows after the Big Bang, to the formation of solar systems capable of supporting life on planets like Earth, to the evolution of our own Solar System.

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is a large, infrared-optimized space telescope, scheduled for launch in 2014. JWST will find the first galaxies that formed in the early Universe, connecting the Big Bang

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope’s 18 special lightweight beryllium mirrors have to make 14 stops to 11 different places around the U.S. to complete their manufactur-ing. The 18 mirror segments will form the Webb telescope’s huge primary mirror. There are 18 segments, because it takes a large mirror to look back farther in time than ever

2024年8月22日 · Astronomers have directed NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope to examine the outskirts of our Milky Way galaxy. Scientists call this region the Extreme Outer Galaxy due to its location more than 58,000 light-years away from the Galactic Center.
