 The best telescope ever built by humans, conceived and designed to collect light from the most distant objects in the universe, to look for signatures of life in the atmosphere of planets around other stars, to give us access to a new detailed view of the cosmos, was used some days ago to observe Mars. 
 It seems like a waste of time and money, huh? 
 I mean, why do we need JWST’s observations of Mars, when we have probes orbiting around the Red planet, and robots walking on its surface?
Well, as always, science is about creativity and deep thinking. 
Follow me in this video, and I’ll show you the JWST found observing Mars in infrared light. 
 
 

 This story starts on Sept. 19, 2022, and takes place at the so-called Palacio de Congresos de Granada, in Spain.
 The Europlanet Science congress 2022 took place there, from Sept 18 to Sept 23. 
 The meeting was meant to provide a platform to exchange and present results, develop new ideas, and network amongst the owrldwide planetary science community. Six days of posters, workshops, and talks intended to provide a stimulating environment for the astrophysical community to meet.

  3. Let me make 1 correction that people don't know.
    The James Webb Telescope is a powerful Telescope hands down. But there is a misconception about it. It is not the best ever built. It is the best ever to be launched into space. There are a lot of telescopes here on Earth that are considered to be better.
    The reason we want to have a telescope like the James Webb Telescope in space, is to take away the atmosphere that distorts a lot of images. Kinda like the sun in the mornings and in the evenings.
    People still think our sun is yellow, orange and red. The sun is actually a white star. This is why snow is white. The atmosphere bends light and dust and all the other crap floating around in the air makes observing deep space very hard to do. I wish you all the very best and take care.
