  • Northrop Grumman is proud to lead the industry team building NASA's James Webb Space Telescope. This revolutionary observatory is the largest telescope built for space and the most powerful infrared telescope ever made. It is the scientific successor to the Hubble Space Telescope. The Webb telescope will travel 1 million miles from earth and look back over 13.5 billion years, providing images of the first galaxies formed and observing unexplored planets around distant stars. The breakthrough technology developed for the Webb Telescope will expand our understanding of the universe, rewrite textbooks and inspire a future generation of engineers and scientists.
    This animation captures Webb’s journey into orbit, 1 million miles away from earth, depicting the sequence of events surrounding the launch and deployment of this game changing observatory. The travel time, distance and transformation of the telescope as it deploys are included in this sequence.

    the launch of the James Webb telescope by the French team in French Guiana was so precise that Naza communicated that the telescope would have years of life more than what had been planned ... indeed the propellant on board in the telescope which was intended to periodically readjust the position of the telescope in space, was saved, because it was not used to correct the trajectory! a huge success for Ariane and this French team.

    • @Rayden440
      @Rayden440 Před 6 lety +3

      I would argue that NASA is not being ambitious enough. During the Apollo missions, only two Saturn V rockets were tested in unmanned flights, the third launch of the Saturn V rocket was manned (Apollo 7). There was an engine failure on the second unmanned launch, but they decided to go ahead with Apollo 7 without an additional unmanned launch to test their improvements/changes (incredibly ballsy). The Space Race era of NASA is filled with ambition and determination to catch up and overtake the Soviets because the USSR was way ahead of the USA for most of the Space Race.
      After going to the moon a few times, public support and government funding for NASA dwindled. They had a choice between going to Mars and building the Space Shuttle. As you probably know, they chose the shuttle and humans never left low earth orbit ever again :(

      Locutus D'Borg we make our own purpose. Exploration is a exciting prospect for our species. We've done it ever since our ancestors crawled out of trees and started walking upright. But the universe isn't life friendly at all. So far as we know, the only place friendly for human life is a very small portion of Earth. I doubt if theres any planet anywhere close that wouldn't require a space suit and oxygen tanks.

Our absolute purpose is to compliment what's already been created with our eternal creative energy, until we create eternal life and the heaven as we've imagined; all imagination is of thy God be it good or bad; religion is blind..We are forever an inseparable part of God destined to be Gods of our great destiny...In the mind of a supreme being, the earth is inferior to one's absolute creation and purpose into being..God you have bless us with the courage to never fear our inalienable rights to all in creation and our destiny of absolute greatness...We are like no other life..we are Mankind!

      This isn't a documentary so much as corporate propaganda made by the manufacturer of the telescope, Northrop Grumman, to keep that sweet sweet congressional funding pouring in. I really hope they get this done, it is already $9 billion over its original budget of $1 billion U.S. So 10 times what they said it would cost, but they have NASA by the short hairs on this and know they can basically delay as long as they want and keep raking in $$$ because now it is far too late to pull funding, too big to fail. IF they get it all to work I will be massively impressed, but there are a lot of things that can go wrong. Before this video I had no idea how complicated the deployment is going to be. Good luck NASA... P
