Merry Christmas everyone! Any space geeks ready for the historic launch of the JWST on Christmas Day? This will be the successor to the Hubble Space Telescope, the most powerful telescope ever made. Now we can dive deeper into the universe and hopefully find some aliens or maybe evidence of a multi-verse. Yeah cool beans.

Awesome!

Wonder why they're doing it on Christmas though?

You don’t need this telescope to find aliens, they are already amongst us , just take a look at the forums ! ✌️😎

It would be cool if any outter space probe was equipped with a space telescope. Not just for earth's orbit

Actually, the JWS telescope isn't looking out into space. Not many people know that erik sent it up to look at Earth and spy on us guys in the forums...

It’s being sent out to 4 times the orbit of Hubble and is going to be going to look for planets that may be suitable for life, very cool

Can’t wait for it to start its working life. Launch was such a success that there is enough fuel left for it to maintain position in L2 significantly longer than a decade, which is great news. Looking forward to seeing all the new discoveries unfold 🥳

Thanks for the post, but I think I'll wait for a little better provenance. :-)
