Does the James Webb Telescope Find Life in Space? German researcher worked on it – advisor

Will this telescope soon show us a second earth and life in space?

After decades of planning, the most expensive space telescope ever built in space history was successfully launched into space on Saturday. With the jointly built by space agencies in Europe, the USA and Canada „James Webb Space Telescope“(JWST) the oldest galaxies in space are to be explored.

The Webb telescope, named after James Webb, an ex-NASA boss, is so complex, large and state-of-the-art that it enables extremely wide views into space.

Hubble has orbited the earth for 30 years

The infrared telescope is to be the successor to the old Hubble space telescope, which has orbited the earth for 30 years, has been repaired a few times by astronauts – and still provides images of distant galaxies, stars and black holes.
