When the Hubble telescope's first images came in, it literally changed how we view ourselves and this little blue marble we live on. The images of the incredible mind-blowing expanse of the Universe were paradigm-shifting. On Christmas eve, the James Webb Space Telescope was put into orbit and will give us the ability to see images going back to the Big Bang and the very start of the Universe. I cannot express how exciting the next few years are going to be as we get a glimpse of the images this much more advanced telescope will allow us to capture.




 
I've read a couple of articles about it, very cool stuff. Can't wait to see images.
 
I'm a huge astrology buff. I'm hoping it orbits so we can see it out here in the country like we do ISS and Hubble.
