NASA confirms insertion burn complete: NASA Webb Telescope on Twitter: " Home, home on Lagrange! We successfully completed our burn to start #NASAWebb on its orbit of the 2nd Lagrange point (L2), about a million miles (1.5 million km) from Earth. It will orbit the Sun, in line with Earth, as it orbits L2. https://t.co/bsIU3vccAj #UnfoldTheUniverse https://t.co/WDhuANEP5h" / Twitter
Revolutionary space telescope designed to see light emitted at dawn of time reaches orbital home roughly 1 million miles from Earth NASA’s long-delayed, $10 billion James Webb Space Telescope, the successor to the Hubble, has been cruising for a month, deploying a vast sun shield and 18 gold-plated mirrors while overcoming a long list of potential snags. It will study the evolution of galaxies and provide new looks at worlds in our own solar system. https://www.washingtonpost.com/scie...9.186NjfiCEiFY_6DODAKNDY-ntqdQ33j90NRC_uDvM4M
Hubble was built by the same contractor that builds the state of the art KeyHole (KH) series spy satellites. Hubble and the KH series spy satellites have the same telescope housing and thus look remarkably similar.
Spy sats have to sift through atmosphere, lighting, etc, whereas a space telescope wants the least amount of visual obstruction.
The first full-color James Webb Space Telescope photo is here, offering humanity a stunning new look at the universe President Joe Biden unveiled the first full-color image from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope on Monday, offering humanity a stunning new look at the universe. The image, known as “Webb’s First Deep Field,” is the deepest and highest-resolution infrared view of the universe ever captured, showing stars and galaxies as they appeared up to 13 billion years ago. https://www.nbcnews.com/science/spa...xXoBni3CWOOeVE9oYJodJWbne5ELB6z8xNkJsDgEAAA== Some truly exciting news......... as we learn more about space...and its history/ evolution.
Ya know… Hubble proved the view at 13 billion light years is the same as we would see at 23 billion LY’s. But some close in scanning may bring up some habitable planets for Bezos to fly off to.

Totally stunning. and rather profound. This is when I wish I has the proper training to really comprehend what I was looking at.
Lots of gravitational lensing at work. The distance galaxies that are warped or elongated lies hundred of millions light years away and would not be visible without gravitational lensing, meaning light from distance galaxies are being magnified by closer galaxies. Some of those galaxies you see are just one galaxy. The lensing effect allows viewers to see multiple galaxies.
The Bible. Do you think the universe existed for its center, Earth? I count the day of rest cause he couldn’t have done the other six days without it.
and religious mythology.............not grounded in science............which is the path of wondrous discovery .........such as we are seeing. This is truly a Moment in history....... A Webb moment . Just awesome. Today's photos leave one gobsmacked. CONGRATULATIONS to the team that made this happen.....A shining example of man's capability. a constructive counterpoint to the inhumanity/barbarism of war. (but folks will"believe" what they have been conditioned to believe"
I still question why are we here and who put us here. Are we truly alone in this vast known universe or there are multiverse out there that we have yet to discover? What was the beginning before universe was created?
