Curate, connect, and discover
Since I’ve been posting/reposting images that referencing the James Webb Space Telescope, I thought I’d add some comments (from Wikipedia) about it.
JWST was launched on December 25, 2021 is intended to succeed the Hubble. It’s first images were released on July 11, 2022.
Paraphrased from Wiki, “JWST was is a designed to conduct infrared astronomy. Its the largest optical telescope in space with greatly improved resolution and sensitivity that allows it to view objects too old, distant, or faint for the Hubble Space Telescope. “
