Follow the live broadcast of the most powerful space telescope ever built

After decades of waiting, the Webb Space Telescope It’s ready to take off. you can see him Historic live version here.

Our years ago He had to refer us to the futureThe James Webb Space Telescope makes promises about how it’s been observedAttorio de 10,000 Millions of dollars, a joint project of NASA, the European Space Agency and the Canadian Space Agency (CSA), will one day get better Basically ourSeeing the universe. For me, the experience of writing this post “Continue Live”“Little Less than surreal, I can hardly believe it’s happening. But it’s true, it looks like the wait is finally over. the Webb is on top of a rocket and looks up at the sky.

Launching will be very exciting and stressful, but so will the first hour of the mission. the Webb will need to deploy his solar panels and perform the address correction maneuver before Its month-long journey to Lagrangian Point II (a gravitationally stable point at about 1.5 million km from Earth). following Include steps a Complex chain of deployments and calibration, and weE hope to be Webb enters the scientific phase of his mission at home About six months.

the Webb is the largest and most powerful space telescope since when. The infrared observatory was supposed to be launched in 2007, but technical and budgetary obstacles, among other problems, led to persistent delays.. Astronomers will use the telescope to observe the first galaxies in the universe, explore the birthplaces of stars and planets, They will clear the atmosphere of distant worlds. The mission is supposed to last at least five years, but the goal is to keep Webb has been in operation for 10 years.
