Scheduled to launch in October 2018.
If successful, it will clarify many deep-space objects such as globular clusters and star-forming areas in our galaxies, and galaxies at the edge of the universe.
We'll take a closer look at red dwarf stars like Proxima Centauri and be able to clarify distant multiple star systems. We'll see the surface of the Solar System's planets and moons in greater detail.
We'll probably even be able to see planets orbiting around stars!!!
James Webb Telescope
The James Webb Space Telescope, previously known as Next Generation Space Telescope, is a Flagship-class space observatory under construction and scheduled to launch in October 2018.
We will have a much better understanding on what's out there. Will answer the question is there a another world like ours. baby steps.
My type of thread.
I can't wait for this!
Hope they made plenty of back up ones!
Unless humans can engineer a machine to master the speed of light or even possibly warping space there is no way we can visit any of this places.Quote:

It could be that simple.

I would doubt that my friend. I would hope other nations would put up a even better telescopes.
If another planet has central banks and nuclear bombs, it should be put out of its misery! Poor blighters! :-XQuote:
