sherpa Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 (edited) Now fully focused, and exceeding expectations. https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-60771210 It gets better and better with this thing. Amazing stuff to come in the next few months, and that's just the start. Webb is going to be amazing.

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 This week, NASA's Hubble Space Telescope confirmed the size of a massive comet at the edge of our solar system, NASA Artemis teams continued testing for launch to the Moon, and our NASA's James Webb Space Telescope got even cooler.

Simon Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 Cool comparison of photos of the Magellanic Cloud taken by the Spitzer Space Telescope and the Webb. The difference in clarity and detail is astounding. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything was so crisp and clear and beautiful! I can see why this would be very moving for anyone working on or benefiting from this project. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sherpa Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 The odd thing to keep in mind is that Webb is looking back in time. A long, long time ago. This could turn out to be one of the greatest inventions ever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just a matter of how far and how clearly. I think the scientific community will get a lot out of this and there will be some cool pictures for the general public. The actual impact on the general public will be nominal if anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mid-August that same year, NASA launched the Voyager 1 to Mars. Maybe there was some extra cargo on the rocket? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
