The infrared telescope mirror will be twice as large as the Hubble and will capture six times more light. James Webb, as well as other telescopes, will be scrutinizing the past and shed light on those dark periods in which there were still no stars or galaxies.
This new telescope costs at least U.S. $ 4,500 million and is named after the former director of NASA's James Webb, who led the organization between 1961 and 1968.
The James Webb will be placed in an orbit more than 1.5 million miles from Earth.

The James Webb must answer two questions: how did it start? And is there life elsewhere in the universe?
The telescope becomes a technical masterpiece full of new applications. For the images taken are of high resolution and no blur, movement, tolerance must be maintained, equivalent to one thousandth of a human hair.
This new space telescope is a project that also involved other agencies astronautics. The device is set to launch with an Ariane 5 rocket from the European Space Agency (ESA).
