James webb telescope


can telescope see back in time ? 

It is accepted that when it finally launches , the james webb telescope will be able to look even future back in time and observe events which happened long ago in galaxies far away




James webb telescope 

james webb is space telescope which is go in space after the hubble telescope , it is mcuh better than hubble telescope the cost of james webb telescope is $ 9.8 billion    it is a very expensiv project and in james webb telescope misson many agencies were aded lilke nasa , esa and csa.

This telescope can see back in time webb will be able to see what universe looked like around a quarter of a billion years (possible back to 100 million years ) after the big bang , when the first stars and galaxies started to from . 



comparison of james webb and hubble telescope ?

Webb will primary look at the universe in the infrared ,while hubble studies it primarily at optical and ultraviolet wavelength .... Hubble is in a very close orbit around the earth , while Webb will be 1.5 million kilometers away at second Lagrange point Webb will observe primarily in the infrared and will have four science instruments to capture image and spectra of astronomical objects . these instruments will provide wavelength coverage from 0.6 to 28 micrometers the infrared part of electromagnetic spectrum goes from about 0.75 microns to a few hundred microns . the instruments in Hubble can observe a small portion of the infrared spectrum from 0.8 to 2.5 microns , but its primary capabilities are in the ultra violet and visible parts of the spectrum from 0.1 to 0.8 microns .



how many light years can the james webb telescope see ?

NASA webb telescope to see 13 billion light years away .




What come after james webb telescope ?

The wide field infrared survey telescope (WFIRST).

Why james webb telescope is so expensive ?

The JWST has a history major cost overruns and delays which have resulted in part from outside factors such as delays in deciding on a launch vehicle and adding extra funding on a launch contingencies . By 2006 , us$1 billion had been spent on developing JWST , with the budget at about us$4.5 billions at that time .

what is secret of 369

  The number 3 serves as the only number that equals the sum  of  all preceding numbers (0 + 1 + 2 = 3). Also, when 3 is added to itself, the smallest perfect number ensues (6). And when 3 is squared, the result is the number that completes the single-digit numbers in the decimal system, better known as the number 9 why 369 is universe of key ? Nikola Tesla was obsessed with numbers, but especially 3, 6 and 9. He wanted the world to know the significance of the number 3 6 9, he claimed that these were extremely important numbers, but the question is why? What was that Nikola Tesla wanted the world to understand? How it became Nikola Tesla 3 6 9 theory? To understand that, we must first know about Mathematics. Why it is so different yet the same anywhere in the universe. Maths was and has been the most valued subject of all the time and the most powerful too. Two plus two will always be four everywhere in the universe. Possibly Nikola Tesla knew the power of the numbers 3 ...

Kardashev scale

  The   Kardashev scale   is a method of measuring a  civilization ' s level of technological  advancement based on the amount of energy  it is able to use. The measure was proposed by   Soviet    astronomer   Nikolai    Kardashev    in 1964. The scale is hypothetical , and regards energy consumption on a cosmic  scale. Various extensions of the scale have since been proposed, including a wider range of power levels (types 0, IV through VI) and the use of metrics other than pure power. Categories  The Kardashev scale has three designated categories, these are: A  Type I civilization , also called a planetary civilization , can use and store all of the energy available on its planet.  A  Type II civilization , also called a stellar    civilization , can use and control energy at the scale of its planetary system. A  Type III ...

Anthropic principle

  The   anthropic principle   is the principle that there is a restrictive lower bound on how statistically probable our observations of the universe are, given that we could only exist in the particular type of universe capable of developing and sustaining sentient life.   Proponents of the anthropic principle argue that it explains why this universe has the  age  and the  fundamental physical constants    necessary to accommodate conscious life, since if either had been different, we would not have been around to make observations. Anthropic reasoning is often used to deal with the notion that the universe seems to be  fine tuned . There are many different formulations of the anthropic principle. Philosopher Nick Bostrom  counts them at thirty, but the underlying principles can be divided into "weak" and "strong" forms, depending on the types of cosmological claims they entail. The  weak anthropic principle  ( ...
