Will the news be better fact checked than this mess?
Its really not so hard to search and watch a basic tutorial video explaining exactly how James Webb functions. Just fyi for future content you make.
Nice and interesting reporting
Yeah good call on the mirrors being solar panels. No wonder everyone is so dumb listening to this stuff. You guys should air things like smarter every day. You could promote science and intelligence.
Annnnnd now I get why republicans don't trust you!
DID SHE REALLY SAY SOLAR PANEL COVERED IN MICRO GOLD PLATING? 😂 She has no idea about this telescope 😂
Yikes! She did indeed. Cringy to say the least!
O my god... you guys have no idea what you are talking about... she literally said the mirror is the solar panel that will be facing the sun.
Did someone fact check this? There's so much wrong here, and I mean like simple things that have been published for years and years. Gold solar panels? I don't expect everyone to know all the right details, but if you're reporting on something like get the basics right.
Scott Manley is rolling in his grave because of this piece - and he's still alive! 🙄
I'm literally scanning the comments to see how many people noticed exactly what she said.....
Amen Robert, first thing I heard…. Them be some purdy expensive solar panels if they are made of gold 🤦🏻♂️lol… can’t continue to watch.
Same here. Paused the video, went right to the comments..
I thought the same while watching this
As usual CBS News continues to get everything wrong. This lady needs to spend time understanding what the James Webb telescope really does.
This woman gets so much wrong… it’s hysterical
It's a disgrace to journalism. For every person able to recognize her inaccuracies, you know there's someone else taking it at face value
@Vikman Photography for every one that recognized it there are probably 5 - 10 that don't.... and 3 - 7 of those are wearing 3 masks in their basement - ALONE.....
It is for a surface understanding, to get people interested to look into it more, she is a news caster not a scientist or journalist.
@@sheeplessknight8732 I don't expect news personalities to go into the weeds with details or to understand red shift, etc.
But I do expect them to get the basic surface level facts correct. Like if they want to talk about the giant shiny gold thing, maybe be able to differentiate it from solar panels. And maybe don't suggest that gears ⚙️ are somehow what's taking the pictures.
She was clueless. What an embarrassment for herself and CBS.
Dear CBS, PLEASE just ask NASA to explain their own spacecraft. Or please ask any of the legion of science/space journalists out there to do this segment instead. This mission is too important to do such an amateur job reporting it.
They just dumbed it down for the people who regularly watch CBS. People know what "Gold" and "Foil" means. Kapton? Seriously doubt it. They're just building excitement for the old and uneducated.
@@Shorty15c4007 She also implied that gears- GEARS are what's taking all the pictures
@@vikmanphotography7984 Yeah I doubt most people who watch CBS news actually care about how the telescope works. Upbeat news > factual information. You throw too many "big" words around this target audience and you'll quickly lose viewership. Besides, for people who are actually interested in how it works will go do their own research.
Not saying it's correct but for CBS's target audience, it gets the point across.
Expensive telescope + years planing + complicated to launch + hey it has plated gold = excitement.
Its not a TIN foil rapped around it.
It Kaptan...a special meterial designed to keep the telescope cold...
I don’t think this report is correct: The gold part will NOT face the sun I thought the whole point was to stay in shadow of earth from the sun
I got up early on Christmas Day to watch the launch, what a Christmas gift too, it launched without a glitch, and the world was watching! Now, it's almost there! WOW how time flies!!!!! ;) NOW with JWST, Hubble, and the under construction ELT in Chile, the three can work TOGETHER to discover a lot more in Space!!!! Very exciting stuff!!!!!!!! :)
Same. It was amazing! What a christmas.
Me too, also dropped a rap about it a couple days before 🔥🔥🔥😎🔥🔥🔥
very Very exciting stuff to come, glad to be here
Maybe we can get a clear view of the war in Ukraine with it after Russia invades
@@ExplainedThroughRap what is a rap?
This is an embarrassing segment by uninformed reporters about one of the most significant science & technology achievements in all one human history. *Note the gold plated hexagonal segments make up the primary mirror of the telescope, the solar panel is relatively small & hangs off the back.
After a long trip, James Webb got to his destination. It will take several months to unpack and get ready. And then, we will get ready to unpack the story of how we got here from the pure hydrogen that we all once were.
I like Hydrogen.
@@SilverlonewolfX You like yourself.
@@CarlosElio82 And I also like you. Not like that. I mean because I like Hydrogen it also means I like you.
I just need the news. I don’t need an explanation from someone who can’t pronounce the name of the telescope. Dude calls it “yellow tin foil”🤯 ITS GOLD my guy. The audacity😂
LOL @1:28 the reporter pointing to the mirror panels and calling them the “solar panels which will be facing the sun.” 😂😂😂
Um, I think the gold mirrors are designed to be blocked from the sun, hence the massive 5 layer foil shield.
Made me cringe so hard... if they get that wrong... just imagine all the other crap they say is fact.
Before the shields were deployed, there was the potential that the mirrors could have been exposed to those temperature. It's not like it was launched with the sun shields already deployed.
@@willhaney96 same, I literally stopped watching when I heard that.
Guess im not the only one haha. Im like…. The mirror is for what??? 🤣
I went straight to the comments when I heard that.
Several wild inaccuracies here, maybe get an expert to double check next time CBS.
But don't you know that gears- GEARS are actually what take pictures? Not CMOS/CCD sensors. pfft.
And everyone solar panels are shiny gold coated hexagons
My favorite part about this video is when the male reporter blew his own mind thinking about looking back into time while observing space, I swear I could just feel all the things that clicked for him. Learning is dope.
The gold plates are the mirrors. This person dosent know what they are reporting on. The James Webb is probably one of earths most significant invention in history and with this information we will change how we see the universe.
Few 'thing's' get to rewrite the narrative...
This has the potential to rewrite everything.
This lady should have said, "this telescope will face the earth to see if there is life on that planet."
1:23 ah yes- solar panels are notoriously golden. *sigh*
And the reason for the temp difference is to lower the noise floor for the infrared imaging systems.
2:18 gears take pictures now? The circular toothed things?
Get a real scientist to check your script first before you spread BS
Yeah, can't tell if she was given that script or if she was ad-libbing and sincerely has zero clue about this.
If she was ad-libbing, then she should go back to reporting on lost dogs & such. This "report" was factually inept. Wow.
Ya beat me too it.
The mirror is gold-plated (Beryllium). That’s what they got confused on. The first 2 layers of the sun shield are covered in silicon. They’re reporters, not scientists. I think we have to keep expectations low with them.
@@NinjaRunningWild It is their responsibility as reporters to represent information faithfully. Reporters should check with experts if they need clarification and to make sure that everything is correct. We should expect more, especially from networks with as many resources as this one.
@@NinjaRunningWild I don't expect reporters to know the low level details. Like you said... They're reporters, not scientists/ engineers.
But I DO expect them to not give incorrect & bad information. Especially when all they're doing its relaying extremely basic information.
So yeah, I can & do blame them. This report was pathetically awful. There's no other way to say it.
"Whopping" 10 billion dollar price tag? Man, imagine if Microsoft threw their 70 billion dollars at NASA instead of Activision
10 billion not million, also Microsoft has nothing to do with nasa, nasa gets 20 billion dollars every year from the government
It's not worth $10 billion dollars it's priceless. It's a purpose-built machine made to the specifications of our most qualified scientists designed by our best engineers and made by our most advanced fabricators. It is a tool unlike any that has ever been made before and instead of talking about the price tag we should be overjoyed that it has an American flag on it.
The way we're headed I don't think the next greatest tool made by mankind to explore the universe is going to have an American flag on it so let's stop talking about the money and start talking about legacy... We destroyed the planet making trillions of dollars of garbage that's going to fall apart within 10 years of manufacture but that thing is going to last and that impact it's going to make on human knowledge is immeasurable.
Luvoir is already underway.
The prediction of America's demise is as timely and accurate as the prediction of the second coming. You just never know. I've been hearing it since the 60's yet, here we are. I do see one party in America has given up on the place and, paradoxically, it's the one that claims to be the greater patriots of the two. If America were a farm, and money were the water that you irrigate with, one party wants all the water sequestered in their gigantic water towers from where they claim it will trickle down. In reality, America was most prosperous when the "water" was copiously applied to the roots of its economy and grew enormously with the growth of the prosperity of all citizens. That was in the 50's. Public investment in education, health care and energy independence are long overdue. Disagree? Then just hop from here on over to the flat earther channel of your choice. Yes, that's right; while many of us are celebrating another of the greatest scientific achievements in space since Apollo, there are lots of Americans from US public schools who think social distancing for covid is going to cause someone to fall over the edge of the world.
@@76rjackson Im getting a tattoo of this. 😵
@@76rjackson well, they’re wrong until they’re right. Just like predictions of a recession. All top superpowers of the past have been overtaken. We’re not immune.
@@mc1543 True enough, but, look at the Soviet union. Look at Europe. Countries seem to cycle rather than just being obliterated. And the problem with a declining super power is that once you start sliding, you find you have a lot of help moving down.
I've been waiting for this I can't wait to see the first pictures and then eventually it's going to take a picture of our Galaxy's own black hole Sagittarius A, even with the filters will get to see a good idea of what it looks like
That would be awesome! I’d love to see detailed galaxy’s!
@@Alextheawesification us nerds have been waiting for an opportunity like this and finally going to get it nearly done, have to be patient till about May or June and let the show begin
Go Webb! 🚀
1.29 The gold plated panels are not Solar panels. They are telescope mirrors and they will NOT be facing sun...
They are supposed to be working at very very low temperatures...
After years of waiting the dream has finally came true all that’s left is the first image
"You're traveling through so many billions of years to space" sheeesh
What if, in a galaxy far far away, we see the death star taking out planets...my god
😁Hello Mrs Charlotte is legit and her method works like magic I keep on earning every single week with her new strategy
I think I'm blessed because if not I wouldn't have met someone who is as spectacular as expert Mrs Charlotte
I think that she is the best broker I ever seen
My first experience with her gave me the assurance that has made me to invest without fear of loosing
I'm from Brazil, I and two other of my friends tried her immediately we testified, her performing wonders
She gave her clients nice attention
This reminds me of the morning show in “Don’t Look Up”
My first thought too!
Solar panels covered in gold🤣🤣🤣
to see a long time ago means seeing a long distance away
News lady doesn't know what she's talking about. The pretty yellow shiny things aren't solar panels. Too bad she didn't think to Google it before hand.
Ummmmmm the gold plated are the mirrors, not the solar panels........
Awesome.
They say it's in a Lagrange point. L2, wouldn't Lagrange points also be home to a lot of captured asteroids, rocks and debris etc.
"Baby steps Tonya" 😂😂😂
I’m impressed with how well this reporter did explaining this! 😁
1. Knowledge
2. Her heart is in it.
Notice the grin she wears on her face since she walked onto the show. She can't turn it off.
Is this sarcasm?
@@nogod7184 absolutely! I agree! She was very knowledgeable, yet had a great way of explaining it in a way that anyone could understand it! I appreciate that in every way.
@@willhaney96 no sir, very genuine!
You're kidding, right? She got so many things wrong. What an embarrassment for CBS.
These are the solar panel.😂(but what they shown us was a a mirror.)
I can't wait to see the product of this instrument. Great job team.
Who's James Wagon? 00:52
this being said..isn't it plausible that outdoor video cameras will one day be obsolete?..
We can do it ☺♥
🎶 Hit the space, James, and don't you come back no more, no more, no more, no more! 🎶
1:23 "These are the solar panels which are going to be facing the sun". pointing at the wrong video footage, smh.
She explained the James Webb with the accuracy of a substitute gym teacher
So exciting!!! Can’t wait for the first results!
Hope it spots a whole fleet of Saucers convoying towards Earth :D
Those aren’t solar panels lol 😂 1:23
No, they're solar things to see way out there and in different colors.
Clearly, she is not that interested in this Marvel of Human Achievement! She didn't even take the time to figure out where the primary mirror and the solar shield are located. I'm embarrassed for her.
How about the habitable planet finding ability????
Yay!!!! Good things can happen too!
“Solar panels” ? 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
@3.44 reminded me of Don't Look Up Movie
Those aren't the solar panels. Those are mirrors. Can you atleast learn what you're saying before you just put a humble of words together
Will it be able to observe outside of our observable universe?
hats exactly what its designed to do! By looking in the infra red, it can see through dust clouds, nebula, and other things. And its 100 times more powerful than Hubble! It will be able to look at the composition of exoplanet atmospheres . We could literally be looking at another blue planet in the next year!
Any news about American success is welcome. These engineers and their teams are great models for our youth. Great job. We are proud. 🤗
True, however, it is important to remember that this was not solely an American effort. It was a joint effort of a number of nations. We did not do it on our own. Other nations played a major role.
@@sfreddy more Like 85 percent American 10 percent ESA 5 percent canadian
The presenters words dont match the pictures - theyre not giving proper info. Man the kind of network TV news they give you Americans is like they think you're 8 years old.
Ironically, I know some 8 year olds who could fact check this pathetic excuse for a report. This report is full of mistakes.
@@beta_cygni1950 They only had 25 years to gather the info and still got big chunks wrong. Also she starts talking about something then stops and talks about something else without finishing the sentence. Then you get those two wall trouts at the desk adding their 2 cents of nothing to a report said at the speed of sound. That CBS logo should have an eye patch on it.
Its a disservice to the whole thing - its the biggest thing to happen to astronomy and our understanding of the Universe since the Hubble telescope and they crammed it into a Twinkie wrapper and drowned it in syrup.
I think the most important task for James Webb is to finally answer the greatest mystery for humanity: Is Earth really flat?
Those are the mirrors not the solar panels. No biggie though. Just the main part of it
It's called a Lagrange point lady low gravity space ,can someone train them better.
- I am hoping that when the James Webb starts operating and
Every time the news wants to bring up the cost of the James Web Telescope. Why don't they say how many people and nations are involved with getting the telescope to where it is? It is the poeple that matter not the $!
Dear Delilah your just a million miles away
If we see life in the distance with this thing, don't provoke it. We need to catch up on the lost time between 2020 and now.

When we finally conquer Interstellar travel what are we hoping to gain a wider scope of the universe or a wider scope of our arrogance🤔
The gold plates will not face the sun, they would get scorched. The part of the telescope blocking the sun is not showen here 🤷🏽♂️ looks like a large triangle with multiple flat layer sheets.
I wonder if all these geniuses can solve healthcare issues
It’s in an orbit around our sun now that’s impressive
What’s your problem

Looking forward to finding potentially habitable exoplanets and first contact with aliens. 👽🛸🖖
Didnt know Lana was into Space Gear. 🤔 ok Lana, we see you
FWIW, Ms. Zak just ID'ed the telescope's mirror as its solar panels followed by more gibberish. Is she speaking so quickly in the hope that no one will be able to understand what she's saying?
I am hoping that when the James Webb starts operating and
to galaxy3619 **and sending us some fantastic pictures** I finished your sentence FOR you.
@@JESUSCHRYSLER5512 thanks Tom. Actually, my reply was longer, but somehow it did not upload, so I am sending a new text
I like her explanation. However, the gold-plated mirrors are not solar panels.
You like it when the reporter gives mostly incorrect & inaccurate information? Ok, I guess. I don't care how "enthusiastic" she was... she explained it very poorly.
This reminds me that humans can be good
The woman spoke in clear factual way sharing her excitement over this amazing and complex instrument as one adult would to another and as I was realizing some of the higher level concepts she was including as possible mindboggling breakthroughs they cut to the fluff who instantly pandered to the morons among us abbot how shiny it was!?! Sigh...
But, yeah, she was great!
Awful explaining and ambiguous pictures meanwhile are not helping. If I wouldn't have known about the telescope I would have gotten quite a bit wrong.

Jesus, don’t these people research this at all before telling millions of viewers about it?
I’d actually be embarrassed for them, if I wasn’t so angry about the spectacularly horrible reporting.
They could’ve gotten a person off the street & given them 2 minutes to research this before having to present it & there’d be a very good chance that they would have less inaccuracies than this reporter did🤦♂️
Great reporting, CBS. Really great. 😂
1:29 ... Is she calling the mirror a "gold solar panel"? Gasp!
Imagine If The Aliens Didnt Agree With This And Just Lazer Zapped It…What A Waste 🤣🙈🤣
She look really nervous 😬
Solar panel? U mean gold beryllium mirrors!
This is embarrassing.. How can a reporter get something like this so very wrong? Gold plated solar panels? In the first place, solar panels would never be gold plated. Those hexagonal, amazing things are mirrors.. Mirrors that will never, ever see our sun. The 'solar panel' that does face the sun is pretty small compared to the whole thing and is certainly not coated in gold. The huge 'sun shield' ARRAY that will be facing the sun isn't even plated in gold so there's no way to mix that up. SMH
Such a pretty yellow! No, gold. Gold plated tin foil? No, gold foil.
This guy is like the news guy in Don’t Look Up.

This reporter's science is bad😞😞. Please run your script with an expert before broadcasting. You had multiple misconceptions about the purpose and capabilities of this telescope. Also a Theory is not a hypothesis. Down voting because of laziness.
