How NASA Reinvented The Telescope

How NASA built the James Webb Space Telescope to go beyond the capabilities of any telescope that's come before.

Mars Colonization News and Updates

The Space Race is dedicated to the exploration of outer space and humans' mission to explore the universe. We’ll provide news and updates from everything in space, including the SpaceX and NASA mission to colonize Mars and the Moon. We’ll focus on news and updates from SpaceX, NASA, Starlink, Blue Origin, The James Webb Space Telescope and more. If you’re interested in space exploration, Mars colonization, and everything to do with space travel and the space race... you’ve come to the right channel! We love space and hope to inspire others to learn more!

It's nuts how much engineering is crammed into to this thing

[xoliswamphuti]

It's just amazing how long we have come ❤ that itself deserves a Nobel Prize

I love how Issac Newton pokes out but stays in the shadows

5:30 I feel like you didn't really explain why these light sources are infrared. You're talking about age of the light. Not the Doppler shift that is occuring due to these objects moving away from us rapidly

I didn't know that about the James Webb Telescope. Thanks for letting us know in your easy way of explaining it to us. It's much appreciated.

The immense pride for humanity’s inquisitiveness and ability to pull out such feats after watching such videos🥺

[dylanvenier]

Amazing Video! I hope YouTube shows it to lots of people, I'd love to see another video for all of the amazing images the James Webb created

[TubTub]

What awesome video!!! Keep up the great work man!

[The-KP]

Great video, connecting Webb with the past. Well done 👏👏👏

9:00 The amount of gold by volume is 2.5 cubic centimeter, 2.5 ml, or 1/2 teaspoon.

Waiting for that "whole another video" covering the JWST work from day zero in space until now.

Speaking of time machines, I ponder this: if FTL communication is actually possible, and say we make contact with a advanced civilization some 10, 000 light years away, would it be possible for them to aim an ungodly powerful telescope at Earth, and see Earth as it was ten millennia ago? They could then send digitized copies of these photos via FTL, and we would have perhaps clear sharp photos of the Earth from back then? Pretty crazy, right?

Thanks to the amazing fiability of Ariane 5 launcher, the telescope just won a few years of life

I wish there was a dedicated space telescope that specifically looks at/searches within our stellar neighborhood. Deeply searches stars/exoplanets within 10ly, currently 30 solar systems... then 20ly, currently 117 solar systems.

I was so inspired by our SHuttle program, I was hurt emotionally with the Challenger incident, I was sad when i was reading how the Hubble was being delayed because of the Challenger. I was so excited when we were able to restart the Shuttle program. I became so sad again with the Columbia incident. then excited when we returned again, then sad when we retired the program. became so excited with the Webb telescope launch, and have such great feelings today about our program with NASA and also Elon's SpaceX. one thing I am confused by, with a telescope, if you can see far enough, like say to Pluto, you see pluto just slightly faster then the light reaching us naturally.. so in a sense, naturally we are seeing the past, but a telescope brings us to a closer present time. how is it everyone says we are seeing the past with James Webb telescope, and not a more closer representation of the present? if the light we see today is passing us by, from what ever amount of light years away an object is, then how do we see something that already past us by using the Webb telescope?

Make video on HWO: revamp version of jems web telescope

[wyattnoise]

Hey, remember all the people in your comments that were constantly begging SpaceX to come save the Starliner crew (even though it isn't necessary)?

Why all the crickets, all of a sudden?

Did something happen to the Falcon 9?

[KaceyGreen]

Another awesome and informative video. Additionally, the audio was much better, with only a few moments of sounding overprocessed (and not at all like an AI reproduction of your voice. Nor like the alternative narrator, who is preferred to the AI-sounding one.)

12:08 There is no such thing as "degrees Kelvin" as Kelvin is dimensionless, so it's simply "Kelvin".

It's also runs on a space rated IBM PowerPC G3.
