12:34 - The reason why phones don't like being in the fridge is battery chemistry. Most electronics actually tend to work better when cold. Of course, fridges don't go down to 40 K.
Outstanding. And very timely. Sometimes I despair of us as the human race but it’s talks like this that remind me of what incredible things we are capable of. Everyone involved in the JWST is a hero / heroine. Thank you for sharing this magnificent talk.
Webb will prove to be an epoch making instrument for astronomy but also for technical proficiency and precision engineering. Having watched NASA videos on the development, I was glued to the TV at the launch, the only member of the family aware of the hundreds of tiny components that each had to function correctly or $ 9 Billion dollars and countless hours of design, development, manufacture and testing would be rendered space debris. A pinnacle of human endeavour and a tremendous example of collaborative effort.
Awesome video! I'm doing my PhD research on liquid mirrors for space telescopes. This JWST video reminds me why I enjoy astronomy and engineering so much!
A really engaging speaker. I love astronomy but have the attention span of a fish so it's not often I'd sit through an hour. Listening to the engineering challenges - if I'd been in charge of the project it would have been lucky to be able to see the moon.
Hey Mark, maybe show some love for ISIM and the instruments? A lot of JWST press focuses only on the OTE, but the instruments are pretty amazing in their design, fabrication, assembly, alignment, and testing- and it all worked flawlessly. Maybe not as glamorous as the OTE, but just as amazing.
What a speech, just fascinating.But i would like to point out one point that it's ESA and Arian rocket which launched the JWST in accurate orbit that we can talke it's full advantage without errors, so big thanks to ESA.
first and foremost heat resistant fire retardant sheets of sillicone and aluminum material with imbedded nanothermodynamic technologies to shield and provide from heat and energy to the infrared thermometer telescope.
It's not just the slides. The video itself is also interlaced (and converted from 25/50i to 30p, it seems). You can see it clearly on the edge of the table. The Ri really seem to lack someone who understands video formats and processing; a lot of their videos have technical issues.
You'd think people who can launch a space telescope could also deinterlace video properly. 😜 Yeah, I know, probably the Ri's fault, not NASA's. They really seem to be missing someone with a clue about video processing. Who shoots interlaced video in 2024, especially if the goal is to put it on TH-cam? Also, I'm pretty sure they shot this as 50i and then published it as 30p, which makes it even worse.
Yes , students already built model.of JWST , with cardboard and they are going to do it with the same with our next telescopes with Just couple of dollars..😂

22:38 ''just the horror of being launched'' as he looks with horror at his tooth being launched out of his mouth. Beautiful. Just Beautiful.

I remember the Hubble deep field. Sky and Telescope magazine had a great issue on it. And the Hubble telescope repair. Awesome
Nice presentation - this is an amazing piece of engineering! Thank you Director Clampin for your efforts!
What an excellent lecture! Bravo!

Fanstastic talk, Mark! Will the Habitable Worlds Observatory focus on the spectra in infrared or other electromagnetic spectra?
Thank you! What a marvelous lecture.
Awesome,,thanks for making these educational vids
Excellent overview - thanks :-)
Great video, thanks !

"Yeah ESA! You rock 🤓💪"
Like that?!
So acurate that it also save Webb fuel and give Webb a much longer life span. Thanks Ariane/ESA !
22:38 Was that a tooth?
Look he gave say yes😂😂
I live less than 50 miles from the Perkin Elmer facility that produced the Hubble mirror. It was a very big deal at the time.
What I learnt was mirrors have to be temperature controlled for perfect imaging. Which is interesting. Btw clever experiment by carl sagan.
Extraordinary beyond all expectations, superior and beyond any and all manned space explorations.

science works.
i could watch that animation of it unfurling at 33:00 all day. its a masterpeice. a real life transformer
What a great speaker! And what an amazing presentation! WOW! This was great

is that why its wiggling
@@katiebarber407 - Yep.

Too long. Too expensive. Let students do it next time.

A staggeringly ridiculous comment.

It's fake. CGI
There’s always one. And here you are. I pity you.
Dunno, seems like real CGI to me.
What, even the videos of the sunshield and mirrors deploying?? 😧
What, you mean they didn't launch a separate probe just to film the telescope unfolding from a distance? Shocking.
