    Last week we did a story on the Hubble telescope and the upcoming and final servicing mission to fix it up. The James Webb Space Telescope was mentioned, but not many details were given. This video found on the NASA site shows what is new with JWST, why it is better than the Hubble and a bit of what we can expect. The telescope is still being built and it is possible it will be delayed a bit, but JWST is scheduled to fly no earlier than 2013, so we have a bit of time to admire the images from Hubble a bit longer.

    Rio de janeiro. I´m not yankee, but admirer of the space explorations. I ask for like this the all citizens of the it USA that they help to save James Webb of the cuts of budget of his Congress. Hear the video below. Help to save the humanity's eyes. And spread for his/her compatriots. Save the James Webb Space Telescope/ watch?v=aZGE86qBxCI&feature=related

    @KalimaShaktide there are actual pieces of shit floating in outer space the dark matter of the universe that will stop the expansion of the universe and cause it too contract to the point of the original big bang the same pieces of shit that floated into diana nyads mouth when she swam around manhattan

    Congress wants to pass a bill that will terminate funding for the James Webb Space Telescope. facebook(dot)com/SaveJWST This project costs less money than we spend on wars per week.

    @evgtun see the bang has to happen at wat is now the center of our universe...and since the explosion would have expanded radially outwards we just have to looks for its "echo" then move towards that direction where the echo is weaker because the part where the bang occured will be the part which has had maximum time for dampening of the echo....

    @spacevidcast How will JWST stay in Earth orbit 1.5 million away from Earth? Is gravity that far away from earth.
