The James Webb telescope is a hopeful key in unlocking the mystery and changing humankind’s
understanding of what’s beyond our Earth forever. The Hubble telescope proceeded James Webb launching in 1990 James Webb cost an astronomical $10 billion to build.

It is predicted that we are given glimpses into the past of around 13 ½ billion years by using infrared light to
measure and study galaxies within galaxies per se. The quality of the satellite images is not just dependent on
technology inside the telescope, but also the size of its mirrors as they determine just how much detail the
satellite can see in. James Webb weighs 6 tons with a massive 21-foot mirror altogether. A small team has
resumed small portions of operations due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Webb can find and measure baby
galaxies, which will hopefully give scientists a galaxy map with the level of detail that has never been seen
before.
This massive project was started in the hopes of studying the origins of our universe. Using infrared
technology and the light collected from years, for example, may give a status such as when the star began,
and why it became the size it is in so much more detail than ever thought possible.
With the telescope’s technology in the palm of our hand, we will now be able to see stars that may be billions
of years old. The future of space study has never looked brighter. It is believed that this project will enhance
astronomy to new heights.
