JWST - Peering into the Past
For decades, NASA has been producing James Webb Space Telescope. The telescope is being dubbed "the most effective space telescope ever made." The scientific marvel cost 10 Billion USD. After its launch on December 25, 2021, it has traveled 1 million miles from Earth towards the Lagrange point to unlock the mysteries of the distant galaxies.
Earlier, we made a video on the JWST launch, you can find its link on the top of the screen.
The James Webb Space Telescope has a 25-foot gold mirror that would be able to capture light from the early stars and galaxies 13.6 billion light-years from Earth.
What to Expect from James Webb Space Telescope?
Once totally calibrated and cooled, JWST is expected to look deep into the unknown Universe and unravel the mysteries regarding dark matter, stellar objects, black holes, exoplanets, and many other things which we have not imagined yet.
Powered with the most powerful tools, JWST will have up to 10 years to study the origins of our Universe.
In what sense is JWST a time machine?
JWST will unveil how the Universe looked like 100 million years after the Big Bang.
Based on light sources in the primitive Universe, JWST will study the formation of galaxies and detect stars 13.6 billion light-years away from Earth. JWST will use infrared technology allowing it to capture an object’s heat source.
What is the status of JWST now?
Since JWST observes in infrared, its instruments need to be super-cool to provide us the contamination-free data. NASA has recently revealed that JWST has almost reached its cooling point which is almost -266 degrees celsius; furthermore, its instruments are also nearly calibrated. Once JWST's mirrors reach the final cooled-down temperatures, it will be able to look into the past of our Universe which is about 13.6 billion light-years from Earth.
