Space telescopes are designed to capture stunning Universe details by operating outside Earth’s atmosphere.
Positioned in space, they avoid atmospheric distortion and light pollution, allowing them to observe distant stars, galaxies, and other cosmic phenomena with unmatched clarity.
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), launched in December 2021, orbits 1.5 million kilometers from Earth at Lagrange Point 2.
Designed to see red-shifted light beyond Hubble’s range, it acts like a time machine, peering into the early universe. Built over 25 years with a $10 billion budget, JWST is revolutionizing astronomy by uncovering stellar nurseries, ancient galaxies, and insights into the origins of the cosmos.
