NASA's Got a New, Big Telescope. It Could Find Hints of Life on FarFlung Planets
- BitwiseFool 5y agoThe launch of the JWST makes me incredibly nervous. Not only has the project been so dramatically over-budget and behind schedule, it's a one of a kind on a very complicated mission profile. I pray nothing has been overlooked because I dread a scenario like how Galileo's main antenna couldn't deploy fully because of the delays from the Challenger disaster. Some grease had decayed and a tremendous amount of function as lost as a result. Fingers crossed.
