NASA: The United States’ space agency ‘NASA’ i.e. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the world’s largest and most powerful ‘James Webb Space Telescope’. For the first time, such a picture has been shared which no one has seen before and still. Let me tell you, this is the first color image of the universe. who is also very beautiful in appearance
Significantly, President Joe Biden has expressed his happiness by sharing this picture with his Twitter handle. Sharing the picture, he wrote, ‘With the help of this telescope, the first and very special picture to come out is a historic moment for science and technology. This is a very special day for America and all of humanity, along with astronomy and space.’ Also, President Joe Biden enjoyed the first look at these photos with Vice President Kamala Harris.
When was this web telescope launched?
Let us tell you, the James Webb Telescope was launched last year from French Guiana on the northeast coast of South America on Christmas i.e. in the month of December. It is the largest and most complex observatory ever sent into space. Along with launching it, the scientists had made expectations. His hopes have been proved right after this picture surfaced. Significantly, the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) and the European Space Agency (ESA) are also very cooperative in this project.
What is James Webb Telescope?
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is a space telescope designed primarily to conduct infrared astronomy. As the most powerful telescope ever launched into space, its greatly improved infrared resolution and sensitivity will allow it to view objects too old, distant, or faint for the Hubble Space Telescope. This is expected to enable a broad range of investigations across the fields of astronomy and cosmology, such as observations of the first stars and the formation of the first galaxies, and detailed atmospheric characterization of potentially habitable exoplanets.
JWST was launched in December 2021 on a European Space Agency (ESA) Ariane 5 rocket from Kourou, French Guiana, and entered orbit in January 2022. As of July 2022, JWST is intended to succeed Hubble as NASA’s flagship mission in astrophysics. NASA released the first image from JWST on 11 July 2022, the oldest and highest resolution image of the Universe
