The James Webb Space Telescope's remarkable gifts



On Christmas Day 2021 the James Webb Space Telescope was blasted into orbit. In the two years since the telescope has performed like a champ, capturing phenomenal images of the heavens and collecting data about distant planets. Correspondent David Pogue reports on the spectacular findings we continue to receive from this remarkable eye on the universe.

  1. We live in a time when technology like the JWST can let us see these images . It's like we are small children , peering over the top of our backyard fence for the first time , gaping in awe at the wider world outside . My personal favorites are images of galaxies , which our astronomers since Edwin Hubble in 1923 have figured out that these are actually " Island Universes " , with perhaps hundreds of billions of stars of their own . And now we know that the number of worlds – planets – that come with all of those stars is comparably huge . My own takeaway from these absolutely spectacular images is that it is preposterous to imagine that our little world consisting of our sun , the earth , and all of the planets and asteroids and dust that is our solar system , ALL of it amounting to less than even a mote of dust considering all that is out there , could be the ONLY world where life , and even technological life , arose .

  3. It's amazing to think that some of these engineers, scientists have spent their whole career on the JW telescope. The pride they must feel, knowing that this has been the sole purpose in their professional life (and in some ways personal) is palpable.
