The new James Webb Telescope is the biggest telescope yet. But it has had many problems and delays. At the end of 2021 it was finally released into space to explore the cosmos. Currently, it’s next plan is to unravel the sun shield. That is to protect it from the suns harmful rays. It was delayed, but not for a mechanical issue, but it was due to it being over the holidays. As soon as that is done, it will be released.
Key Takeaways:
- The James Webb Space Telescope is now in the process of tightening the tension on the sun shield.
- This is a very important process as it protects the telescope from harmful sun rays.
- There was a delay in getting the sun shield up, but it was only because of holiday.
“The task is the final step in unfolding Webb’s sunshield, and should take up to three days to complete.”
