The Container He announced that on July 12 “the deepest image of the universe ever taken” will be revealed, thanks to James Webb Telescope.
The telescope can look into the past of the universe, to the great explosion 13.8 billion years ago. Current science believes and asserts that the universe, in which we are, was born through a great “primary bang” (the great explosion).

It will explore the bodies of the solar system and the atmospheres of exoplanets orbiting other stars, which may give us clues as to whether their atmospheres are similar to ours. “
The web telescope It is able to examine space in a completely different way thanks to its enormous main mirror and instruments that focus in the infrared, allowing it to pass through cosmic dust and cosmic gases.

Because the universe is expanding, light from the first stars Change lengths ultraviolet wave In the visible spectrum it is emitted to the longest, corresponding to the infrared wavelengths web Ready to detect with unprecedented accuracy.
Primary goal telescope Is to see first stars s galaxies of the universe, especially seeing “the universe turns on the lights for the first time,” said Eric Smith, software scientist web.
The images are expected to show how galaxies interact and collide with each other, resulting in star formation.
Information Collected by web It will allow scientists to make accurate measurements of planets, stars and galaxies in a way never seen before. Suzanne MulallyDeputy Project Scientist.
In the beginning the task web Its duration was 10 years, but thanks to the surplus fuel, the telescope will be able to operate for 20 years.
