What Is the James Webb Space Telescope? - NASA Space Place
WEB3 days ago · The James Webb Space Telescope is the largest, most powerful space telescope ever built. It will allow scientists to look at what our universe was like about 200 million years after the Big Bang . The telescope will be able to capture images of some of the first galaxies ever formed.
Overview - NASA Science
WEBWebb is the largest telescope ever placed in space. 100 times more powerful than Hubble. Webb is designed to look deeper into space to see the earliest stars and galaxies that formed in the universe and to look deep into nearby dust clouds to study the formation of stars and planets.
