James Webb Space Telescope - Part 1
The James Webb Telescope mission, but we are getting closer to it each day... This video delineates in meticulous detail the missile's launch on March 30, 2021. It will open up new space discoveries and enhance the science of space, orders of magnitude greater than ever before! This oustanding video is a bit longer than I usually post on RP, but it is so magnificent, that I wanted to share it with all of you in RP...
Description (Wikipedia):
"The James Webb Space Telescope is a space telescope that will be the successor to the Hubble Space Telescope. The JWST will provide greatly improved resolution and sensitivity over the Hubble, and will enable a broad range of investigations across the fields of astronomy and cosmology. Wikipedia
Launch date: March 30, 2021
Cost: 10 billion USD (2016)
Dimensions: 20.197 m × 14.162 m (66.26 ft × 46.46 ft) (sunshield)
Power: 2,000 watts
Rocket: Ariane 5 ECA
Wavelengths: from 0.6 µm (orange); to 28.5 µm (mid-infrared)
Did you know: Its orbit will be far from Earth – beyond the moon's orbit. earthsky.org
I hope you enjoy this as much as I did during my research...

This particular Video is absolutely amazing Lt Col Charlie Brown !!! Every once in awhile, someone, some company invests the capital to create a scientific video that is beyond compare!!! This is one of those videos... I am sure that your Grandson's will be enthralled with this!!! Have an awesome day, Charlie!!!
