The James Webb space telescope, which the American Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has been working on for many years with many countries for the discovery of the universe, is preparing to shed light on the unknowns of the universe. The largest telescope in human history will not only observe distant galaxies.
James Webb space telescope to study solar system
The telescope, which is expected to shed light on many unknowns about the universe, has now started its task. The telescope, which has been broadcasting interesting images in the past days, has an interesting target. The telescope will reveal all the details of the Solar system.
The Webb space telescope reached the Langrange-2 (L2) point 1.5 million kilometers from Earth, where it would operate for 10 years, on January 24. The telescope, which recently published its first color image, has many more interesting targets.
Infrared early universe, Super-Earths and more
James Webb, who is 100 times stronger than the Hubble Telescope, will be able to see 13.5 billion light years ago by traveling in time, in other words. In this process, it will examine targets that humanity does not know much about, such as the early universe in the Infrared, the TRAPPIST-1 system, and the Super-Earths.
Here are Webb’s 10 interesting observation goals…
- Infrared early universe
- The most distant and oldest galaxies
- Jupiter-sized exoplanets
- 100 Galaxies at once
- Super Worlds
- TRAPPIST-1 system
- Organic molecules and planet birth
- Pillars of Creation
- Jupiter, its rings and moons
- Asteroids and Near-Earth Objects (NEO)
