How NASA’s Webb Telescope Will Transform Our Place in the Universe
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 вер 2024
- NASA's James Webb Space Telescope is the most powerful telescope in the history of humanity, and one of the most ambitious engineering projects ever attempted. It will witness the birth of stars and galaxies at the edge of time and probe alien skies for signs of life. In this new documentary from Quanta, JWST’s lead scientists and engineers discuss what inspired the telescope, how it was built, the extraordinary challenges it will face upon launch, and its potential discoveries.

The fact that a majority of people do not appreciate how significant this event is, kinda makes it even more special for those that do.
I lost all trust in NASA a long time ago. They are as corrupt as the day is long. The serve onlly to keep humanity enslaved. as they only serve their puppet masters.
@@jockoharpo2622 Good for you!
How profound you are. Sob
👍🤗🌌
I pay attention to science but mainly paleontology and biology but astronomy folks are freaking insanely stoked about this, I can't claim to really understand why.
My friends and family think I'm crazy to be so excited over a "space telescope." I can't wait to see the results and hear the analysis.
We should get James Webb photos back in 2035 if all goes well
Same for me ! Nobody understand!
Most people will simply never understand the point of the Webb. Just move on, Michael. You can't convince them that an achievement like this is part why we have degree of importance as a species.
@@doozerchuck8625 I'm trying not to worry too much about getting it properly in place. That's the first step.
me too i am extremely exited
I am 90 and really hope to live for a few more years to learn more, hopefully, MUCH MORE before I leave our beautiful planet earth!
When this telescope launches, its going to be the most stressful few months, because I can't stress how much I want this telescope to work.
dont strain yourself
Oh it'll work alright. But you wll not see anything that pertains to anything that even resembles anyihing artificially made by other worldly beings.
Additionally, the telescope will be launched in the most reliable rocket ever built.
Do you need grief counseling on speed dial?
@@aaronpau9647 Spaghetti sauce is strained.
What a generation to be alive, we really take for granted that on the past 3 decades we have learned so much of the universe than our entire human civilization ever did. Thanks to our brilliant scientists/astronomers every where in the world
Not true
@@Mono.indios ok andy
@W.S K.E since you're mixing up religious with astronomy advancement do you believe the earth is the center of the universe? Do you know religion specially Cristian had always block human astronomy advancement for hundreds of years because it contradict the writing on the Bible (Galileo life story will prove it as we have REAL documentation about it ) as a wise man once said: those who don't understand history are doomed to repeat it.
@@Mono.indios not true! is a subjective answer, would be nice if you explain your point of view
@@californiacloud1036 2022 will be a great year for our enlighten of the astro, hopefully more people will wake up to be more open minded and have more empathy to each other
The image of being able to point up to the sky and factually state that there is life around a certain star is a concept that made me tear up. I can’t wait to see what the telescope uncovers!
NASA IS GOING TO CONTINUE HIDING EVERYTHING....JUST LIKE THEY HAVE DONE ALWAYS!
@@magikarpslapper759 WOW! YOU MUST BE A CRYSTAL WOMAN
Yes. “The end of cosmic loneliness.”
These ambitious and audacious scientific projects are a true testament to humanity's insatiable curiosity and exploratory drive.
I can't even begin to describe how grateful I am for everyone who helped see this project to fruition.
If only we applied this to all parts of humanity!
If they are able to see the atmospheres, are they going to be able to see street lights if there are street lights on the dark sides of the planets?

I strong believe the universe found a way through us to explore & understand itself. Not a God of all knowing, but a creator that through many trials & errors was able to come up with living matter that are able to be self aware, pass knowledge among generations through the written word & above all else; be very curious & have an insatiable drive to explore, & learn how things work. Even if it takes multiple generations of young explorers, on a never ending cosmic odyssey!
10 million dollars ? change our perspective on reality? yet we spent 250 billion just in this country on killing each other last year.
I once read a comment: "We are the Universe trying to understand itself", which I love so much. It is truly mind bending to think about the fact that we are building this thing in order to try to understand the roots of our very own existence.

Delusional people will tell you Jesus. Open minded people will let science figure it out for us.
sounds like Carl Sagan
scripture has done this for those who seek the truth,, There is nothing beyond the firmament, the nasholes are freemasons who are lying to the world!!! please explain how they lost the telemitry for all six so called flights to the moon, oh yes and who was the photographer whe got the pictures and movies of the first moon landing? How did they get there? What can you push against in a vaccum that is beyond magnetic orbit? HHHmmmm I call b/s I asked the KEK telescope for just one actual image of the moon, They have none for public view!!!
@@michaelmontgomery5326 feel sorry for you bro. You believe in a sky fairy but not real science that is actually here on earth.
This is a milestone in human history, and we are living right through it. Amazing.
I know. I got so excited I stuffed a Jaffa cake up up my gash.
Yes. I so wish less people were hungry & suffering because we could have the energy required to appreciate this even more without those distractions.
I am a 70 years old woman and I'll be so blessed if I get to see a single picture from J.Webb but I am very excited about it. I won't miss the launch on December 18th this year.

@@A3Kr0n que me da vergüenza y yo te lo
Yeah, but you have to think, we would be seeing something from millions of years ago.
Just like is a civilization from across the Milky Way was using a telescope to look at Earth, and if they were able to see the surface of the planet. That Alien Civilization would be seeing "Dinosaurs" not human beings.
If we are going to try and communicate with Alien civilizations, we are gonna have to think outside the box.
Radio waves, and even television waves have been beaming out across the cosmos since the invention of the two.
When you compare that "buble" to the rest of the Milky Way, and or the Universe....its a very, very, very, very small bubble.
Yea, but i also have this idea of, us being the gods in the future, where we truly are alone but it has always been us who polluted our galaxy and then the universe in the future...what if we were the ones who started it all. And than billions of years from now, creatures or us our dna in the future would call us now the ancient ones.

I was born in 1989, so too young to appreciate Hubble until I was much older. The JWST has made me so incredibly excited and full of anticipation for what it will bring. This is the stuff that will rewrite history books.
I’m literally crying tears of joy. I am so so amazed by this right now! ❤️
I also amber monique
Magnificent 👌
So refreshing to hear that from someone else!
@@darionz hi bro
Me also 😎
I had been waiting for James Webb telescope ever since I was a child when an encyclopaedia mentioned it's launch date to be in 2013 or so 😂
Likewise!
I remember when it was suppose to launch in 2007 and cost 500 million. Only 14 years late and 9 Billion over budget. hah
It's time to find alien life
Either way y'all. It's time now.
🤞hopefully all goes well
*We will finally know whether our closest exoplanet is habitable!*
I want to stay on earth
The sheer level of ingenuity, abstraction, and effort that went into making the new Webb Telescope is astounding. Huge respect to our brightest minds for executing on this scale. Hoping everything goes well and we all get to see incredible new insights about our incomprehensible reality.
I asked the KEK telescope for just one actual image of the moon, They have none for public view!!!

Mother and daughter working together, that sounds like a true dream come true.
The JWST will be the next huge science project indeed, so happy it's finally getting into the sky. This is amazing, well done you folks!
The Webb is both exciting and a joke. It's fantastic to finally have an upgrade over the Hubble but the amount of delays and problems have made the Webb largely outdated already.
@@zebraneighbor6383 outdated you say ? there's no other telescope as good as james , how can it be outdated lmao , it's not an instagram trend to become outdated after a few years lmao .
@@shukrantpatil There's no other space telescope as advanced as the Webb. But terrestrial telescopes have moved on from the tech used in the JWST.
But by and large that's not too big an issue. After all, the Hubble has been outdated for a long time and it's still a very useful instrument. So yeah, the Webb is technically obsolete but that doesn't mean it isn't still a very capable tool.
Sir what is the launch date ?
@@Saifull1991 22 Dec 2021....just weeks away :)
Think of all the millions of people across the globe who never got to experience any of this. We are among the most fortunate people in history.
To all who made this possible...
Thank You.
I am eternally grateful.
Best wishes to everyone involved in this complicated mission.
My wife has parts on it! Can't wait to see it go up. They believe life is on proxima b. First place they will look.
Don't Worry, they will be fine :)
@Jonathan Jacquet nerves... She just hopes nothing she had a hand breaks or malfunctions.
what's so complicated? what mission?
It's not that complicated.
3D modeling is easy, 2D also, it's really easy when you THINK about it.
Damn i’m excited for this. It’s cool cause i feel like i can feel the vibe of everyone else’s excitement too. I’m excited to be a part of this with everyone. It’s also cool we’re the first people that can connect so easily over it and share excitement over it on the internet. Very cool time to be alive.
The simplest things in our lives, something as simple as a rudimentary radio, would still be incomprehensible alien magic to our brothers just five thousand years ago. Imagine explaining something like the James Webb to them. I hope it finds aliens lmao.
One day we will be rememberd as the 'Pioneers" . The first to venture, or maybe our children will venture by our generations taking those first steps.

these people (all scientists in every field) should be respected and helped in any way possible they are the best and more extraordinary human beings on the planet.
"Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known."

Same a**hole that flat lied to us that life began in a primordial tide pool which was debunked long before he died.
Somewhere over the rainbow. JWST will definitely be over the rainbow.
Hopefully this will inspire a lot of people to get out of the swamp of petty politics, poisonous ideology, preserving the status quo, bigotry, poverty, and ignorance and work for bigger and better things.
amen
And communism and reverse racism.
Well said.
Bigotry lmao
Very true, throughout history men have been able to create great achievements and civilizations because of the ability to go somewhere new and make and push new borders and we are stagnating now because for the first time in human history both the great unheard masses and over heard minorities have nowhere to go to try their great experiments, even though sadly what many people in power through the voices of the minority are obviously aiming for something that has already failed and will fail again only this time it could be the final failure therefore our only option if we want to not only survive but thrive as as a species again we need to go to the stars. Only this time let’s hope there are no natives. And for anyone who wants to misconstrue that and think in purely intersectional terms don’t you dare take the history and honor from the men who fought ‘the white man’ (oh and any other tribe at other time) tooth and nail for every square mile of their home on this great land.
We live in Realy Great times!
ive been fascinated with space since i was a lot younger, ive only learned about basic astronomy and super simple physics stuff from the internet but im very excited to see how this turns out, ive been following this telescope for about the last 3 years
Quanta Magazine pumps out some of the highest quality videos on the platform, props to the team. Keep up the good work!
Such fantastic and tireless work by these engineers and astrophysicists on this telescope. The mother daughter duo just gives a poignant and timeless intergenerational sense to this endeavour.
I can see your point. The duo is very nice from a gender politics and poetics perspective. But it is very likely that this duo represents also the unfairness of selection processes. Think about it: how many good and excellent people had to be discarded for the daughter to be in? I don't have doubts that she is qualified for the job, but I am sure there are also many more as good or better than her, but without the family connection.
I cannot understand how people don't find this amazing
Who doesn't find this amazing? Literally no one.
Because space is fake... Wake up.

Imagine if they find life. Do you think they will let the public know right away? I don’t.
My inner child has came back to life after all these years. I can't believe I lost interest years ago with the stars... Thanks to the JWST Mission I'm reliving and enjoying this with my kids and grandchildren...This is going to be awesome...
As somebody who does not even own a telescope, astronomy surely excites me. And this Telescope is the most exiting thing ever. Good luck to its launch.
We have learned so much from the Hubble telescope, and to think the new James Webb telescope is even more technologically advanced, makes me so excited to see its first images materialise !
What did we learn from the Hubble? And who the hell is "we"?
@@jockoharpo2622 Take a look at the Hubble Deep view photo. We are humans.

*We will finally know whether our closest exoplanet is habitable!*
I couldn't imagine the stress everyone must be feeling who put Webb together! I want this thing to launch and give us more data and some that'll change our understanding of alot of things. Webb is gonna be crazy. With everything going on. Not to bring up ufos but wow we live in wild times. Lots of questions. Lots
*We will finally know whether our closest exoplanet is habitable!*
well that Adriane 5 rocket & the launch team that fired it off so perfectly I can NOT say a enough good things about it or them! This thing was more expensive than a Saturn 5 launch and hardly NOBODY in the states knew a thing about it.. THAT is an absolute DISGRACE to the news agency in this country! Or perhaps its finally being noticed how STUPID this country as a class of citizenry has become.
I like to think that the smallest "things" we can see under microscopes that blip in and out of existence, are universes themselves. And, our own universe and its entire quadrillion+ year existence, appears to decay in an instant relative to whichever sentient being is studying it. While a Googol of different universes make up matter in their own perception of reality.
You're starting to sound like an eastern mystic!
I like your funny words, magic man
Your words resonate with the googol ages-old 'epistemology x ontology' conundrum.
@@interestingvideos4me I've not heard of that previously, but sounds like something interesting to look up.
JWST is incredibly exciting, bringing us infrared.
Next up, LISA in 16+ years, brining us gravitational waves.
Space telescopes are truly incredible feats.
Actually, next up is the NG Roman telescope in about 5 years (or less). I'm excited about that one too.
@@beta_cygni1950 Hadn't heard about Roman, so thanks!
It sounds like Hubble 2.0, but geared towards area and exoplanet detection--a necessary compliment to JWST's lower frequency range for more distant objects.
Hat's off to all of the brilliant scientists that worked on the project.
This is a chance at being part of the initial discovery of life outside of earths boundaries!
Never in my life as a child did I see this opportunity coming but now within 5 years we may find something!
I am humbled by this, my curiosity about life outside of earth was sparked by my father who is thankfully still alive himself to see this marvel do it’s job!
I know it’s primary job isn’t to find life but this would be an almost automatic function secondary to it’s main task.
A masterpiece of engineering. Revolutionary.
Natalie giving a massive hint nudge to her daughter about giving her grandkids was the most Earthbound human point in this video!
I'm a chef and a meat cutter so I don't understand a lot of the technical stuff. However I do understand how important this is and fascinating these people that do all of this for us are amazing just amazing. I'm 59 years old I probably won't see anything like warp speed or terraforming Mars but it's nice to be alive at the very beginning of all of this. 🤔🇺🇸👍
No other country on the planet comes anywhere close to this level of telescopic achievement. All made here in America. That device is astonishingly advanced even orders of magnitude beyond Hubble which itself is still one of the best large scopes even 30 plus years since it was first devised by NASA. Shout out to New Jersey, Alabama , Utah and all the other States in this great nation that contributed the raw materials, ingenuity, blood sweat and sleepless nights. GOD BLESS AMERICA! Very proud of my country.

Well Anthony, we might be, if NASA had not been caught lying repeatedly. And maybe in the past 50 years we would have a real video of earth from the 1000 of sats or ANY telescope or camera for that matter. But we don't. So it goes back what Bill Nye the Scince guy had claimed years back. "We are in a closed system, and we cant get out, we cant leave the earth". So this is the issue with getting 50million every waking day with more lies of iss footage.
@@philindeblanc Merry Christmas!
Wow just admiring the mother and daughters brains. Must be a wonderful thing to have so much knowledge that you can look up in space and know exactly what you're looking at which specific planets or stars are.
I remember doing a chemistry project in high school on the element Beryllium, and one of its coolest applications was for this telescope's mirrors. I thought it already existed back at that time. I had no idea it would take this long just to launch the thing.
I wasn't even alive yet when development first started. But I am glad we're finally going to see it launch this year (assuming it doesn't get delayed again, that is).
I'm sure there's a little beryllium in just about every piece of equipment on that telescope. Does the job of gold with none of the atomic weight.
Y'all must be teenagers. 🙄
I’m about to graduate undergrad, and I’ve been following this since the beginning of middle school. I can’t even begin to explain my excitement and anxiety over this launch. I can’t imagine how it feels for the people who have been working on this since long before I was even born

Yup!

I’m sweating just thinking about all the things that can go wrong…
LOL. You're not alone.
Think positive : )
JWST project has been on-going for 25 years & is $10 billion over budget, thus far!
Original launch was set for 2007, which underlines the many redesigns & remedies employed so far.
Hopefully its not delayed again & it operates as intended; at least for 5 years!
Let's recall that NASA launched Hubble telescope with its main mirrors installed backwards, but luckily, astronauts were able to install a "corrective lens" on Hubble as it orbits Earth at only 500 km.
JWST will orbit L2, which is 1 million miles away. Its really a "Do or die" launch.
No pressure!
Like what?
@@amonique like the fact that they’re deploying a sun shield made of fabric, which according to their physicists is made of a “non-deterministic” material. Meaning that it’s kinda hard to predict hot the deployment is ACTUALLY gonna go.

And nature surprises us
This is the reason I went into science. Absolutely fascinating.
Calm down
Let's wait till it's actually successfully deployed before getting our expectations up.

This is almost equivalent to our ancestors building a bigger ship to cross an ocean, I love it.

Finding life is uh, "mathematically extremely unlikely" - 1 x 10^1 billion+
(1 x 10^50 is mathematically impossible.)
So, don't hold your breathe. It is very cool. But, they are shoveling a lot of BS to keep grant money flowing.
you are making a very big assumption. Chances are that we are alone in the universe and that life is unique to earth only. Nasa needs reason to spend millions of dollars however.

*The sunshield is like a huge boat sail. How are they gonna prevent the solar wind from blowing the JWST away?*
You're vastly underestimating the surface area needed for a light sail to propel an object weighing 14,000 pounds to any discernable speed.
@Rob Bannstrom lol
It’s point in our orbit at L2 will stabilize its position as well
The engineering for this must be insane. Especially just the shock insulation from the rocket launch.
We have the chance to be able to look back to the beginning of the universe and learn from it. Most civilizations that will exist in the future will not be able to do this. I feel we have some kind of duty to future civilizations to obtain and preserve this knowledge.
I'm so excited about the possibilities of this telescope. I hope the mission goes as smoothly as possible.
Fingers crossed for not only JWST and team but all the humans who believe in constructive use of science.

I can’t wait to be blown away by what this telescope sees. Hubble’s Deep Feild pics were so awesome, mind blowing to see what’s in a small patch of the sky with nothing in it, until!
This telescope is carrying the hopes and dreams of all space fans on this planet. It HAS to go well!
Hugely exciting - this is the next step in space exploration, taking us a million miles away.
I’m so excited! Let’s just hope they don’t hide to much of what is found from us.
This is incredible, human ingenuity and curiosity at it's finest!
I dont usually have high thoughts about humanity. Except in instances like this. Just an incredible species
As more problems mount, the feeling of Webb being awesome diminishes.
Perhaps, it will work perfectly...
The latest mars rovers blew lots of folks away! And NONE imagined they would land in such an exotict way, successfully.
Now, JWST... Even if it blows up at launch, so much has been learned!!!
If another one was started after the attempt of the first, we know EXACTLY how to make another, faster, probably better scope.
Even if JWST is a complete bust, we sit in a more powerful position already!
"it's going to put an end to cosmic loneliness" man, that's powerful.
This video is absolutely amazing. Gosh, I can't even begin to imagine what we will find and perhaps the significance. I am so looking forward to hearing the first new findings. Good luck to the team
I have been so excited about the Web telescope for so long. This is going to open our eyes to many wonderful things. I'm hoping that this is going to launch and be placed into its orbit with no glitches. It is such an important step into our universal awareness.
Been waiting for the launch of Jwst since 2014. I am glad its happening now.
I’d love to be an Engineer on this project! So much awesome pressure!
It might fail, then what?
I remember when the very first extra solar planet was found and then the citizen science project that allowed anyone to participate in finding planets using their computer. I think that was one of the most exciting discoveries after Deep Field. But now again: we don't know what we will find! This is science at its most exciting! We will be opening a new eye into the universe.
It was found by the "wobble"method and colaberated by the "transient" method. But JWST may be able to image it directly. But if not JWST the next big guy (currently being built in Atacama, the "ELT") most certainly will. Yeah size matters and that thing is gonna have a 40m mirror (WITH atmospheric correction)! I cannot even imagine a mirror that huge...
The moment of daughter and mother really gave me tingling feeling. Fascinating both of them working in the same field.
Seeing evolution and progression happen live, makes me so happy. I cannot wait to see what JWTS brings us in the future.

Actually feel quite emotional having just watched that. So inspiring. Good luck guys !
I cant wait to see other civilizations!
yeah it's an IR telescope and red/orange visible light.
How do you think, how much time it takes for humans to organize the travel to the nearest living planet?
So excited to hear about it's deployment in the next few months :)
I can’t wait to find out what’s out there. Thank you to all the engineers and all who were involved in building this spectacular telescope.
What I’m really curious about is if they do find life which I hope they do. Do you think they’re going to let the public know right away? I have a feeling they will take a very long time to let us know.
What an INCREDIBLE video!! The explanations and graphics make the complex science so understandable and answer so many questions I’ve had about how and why the Webb telescope was created. The scientists you interview are brilliant yet provide descriptions and explanations that ‘everyone can understand. Please keep these videos coming! They have catapulted my interest in astronomy! Thank you!
I'm impressed they use Jupyter/Python, that's so cool
