The James Webb Space Telescope will be launched into orbit in October 2018

The European Aeronautics Agency (ESA) announced in October 2018 that it would use the Ariane 5 rocket to launch the James Webb space telescope to orbit.

This is supposed to be Hubble's successor, the telescope has helped people discover a lot of things about the universe and even so far, the information it has obtained has not been fully exploited.

The James Webb space telescope is expected to be launched into orbit with an Ariane 5 rocket.

Under the plan, James Webb will help astronomers track down the first galaxies of the universe, stars and new planets, thereby providing an understanding of the development and operation of the Universe. cylinder.

Over the years of research, researchers have basically been about to complete the 6.6-ton space telescope with 6.5-meter-diameter mirrors carefully examined. Every bit to achieve the best optical effect possible.

James Webb will be folded and launched into space by Ariane rocket at the spaceport in Kourou, France. After going out into space, fully flattening out, James Webb will start operating at a location about 1.5 million kilometers from Earth and begin his mission to serve people.
