[Webb Telescope] The 10 Billion Dollar Gamble

That’s not really true and has been corrected multiple times. It was a study starting in 2015 and NASA had no direct involvement.

 

Damn, no clerical fun zone guy here.

 

Thanks for that correction.

fully deployed but 6 months estimated to properly align the mirror segments.

 

Was their final answer that "they'll wing it?"

Where's muh check?

 

Waiting like half a year for a Polaroid picture

 

Next steps.

will this be available on netflix? or disney+?

 

L2 insertion burn!

 

why isn't NASA covering this?! they just don't get PR ... press session scheduled though.
insertion burn complete.

 

We're not seeing much coverage of this because there isn't much to cover. We can't actually see the JWST get into position and likely even if we could it wouldn't be all that impressive to look at. As for pics from the JWST that is still months away.

 

Very cool, DD. Thanks!

 

If the news covered it, 1/2 the country would say it doesn’t exist.

 

1/2 the country won't follow a NASA telecast ...

 

That doesn't exist, either.

 

1/4 of 1/2. I won't do the math because I know that is science which is from the devil. Gonna have to trust me on this.

 

So... when you say unreal you're really saying fake.

 

The Telescope is in it's final orbit.
