Title: James Webb telescope
Post by justin_o_guy2 on 01/03/22 at 14:02:26

Are you following it? What do you think?
As cool as Hubble has been and the crazy cool pictures we have gotten from it,I'm hoping for so much more from the Webb scope. I'm watching a video from
Smarter Every Day called
How does the James Webb space telescope work?
If you aren't familiar with that YouTube channel, do check it out. He goes places, interviews people and does some seriously cool things. He is an engineer and not even any kind of dummy.

I spend a lot of time on YouTube while my wife is watching her chick flicks on TV.

Of course I watch the "Fails" threads and see everybody getting bruised.

I also watch the Practical Engineering and several similar videos.

Tom Scott also has very interesting videos.

Thanks! I have a couple new subscriptions in my YouTube account.
Currently, the Webb telescope is pointed down at earth, and it's pretty cool.

Oh. Woops. That's actually from the ISS. Nevermind.

Thanks Dave,I'll check out your guy. The smarter every day guy does lots of builds and interviews. He went to visit the guy who shoots aspirin outta the air with an arrow. His dad works on the new telescope and he got some time talking to people there.

I hurt myself trying to watch the falls. I reflexively respond, I get hot flashes in my knees, I've fallen enough to be unable to watch that. No Way can I watch America's Funniest.
