MrGoodkat You must be my brother from another mother! How is it that you have my own philosophy? Oh I get it, you have an independent, critical thinking, non-brainwashed, educated brain that seeks empirical truth that can be duplicated in theory and practice by anyone capable of understanding that physics is universal and denominations of religions are merely regional at best. I guess after reading that, you'll think I'm your brother as well. Later bro, I'm going to my astronomy class in 30 minutes from now.
Locutus D'Borg we make our own purpose. Exploration is a exciting prospect for our species. We've done it ever since our ancestors crawled out of trees and started walking upright. But the universe isn't life friendly at all. So far as we know, the only place friendly for human life is a very small portion of Earth. I doubt if theres any planet anywhere close that wouldn't require a space suit and oxygen tanks.
We are the "fingers on the hands of God" for which we are an inseparable part of God and creation.. Our absolute purpose is to compliment what's already been created with our eternal creative energy, until we create eternal life and the heaven as we've imagined; all imagination is of thy God be it good or bad; religion is blind..We are forever an inseparable part of God destined to be Gods of our great destiny...In the mind of a supreme being, the earth is inferior to one's absolute creation and purpose into being..God you have bless us with the courage to never fear our inalienable rights to all in creation and our destiny of absolute greatness...We are like no other life..we are Mankind!
gypsydanger I get the slight sense maybe they are being a bit too ambitious with this... but then, its fucking nasa. If I only knew half of the actual process for half of their missions, I think Id say everything they've done is too ambitious.
I would argue that NASA is not being ambitious enough. During the Apollo missions, only two Saturn V rockets were tested in unmanned flights, the third launch of the Saturn V rocket was manned (Apollo 7). There was an engine failure on the second unmanned launch, but they decided to go ahead with Apollo 7 without an additional unmanned launch to test their improvements/changes (incredibly ballsy). The Space Race era of NASA is filled with ambition and determination to catch up and overtake the Soviets because the USSR was way ahead of the USA for most of the Space Race. After going to the moon a few times, public support and government funding for NASA dwindled. They had a choice between going to Mars and building the Space Shuttle. As you probably know, they chose the shuttle and humans never left low earth orbit ever again :(
Was thinking the same thing!! And just imagine...a particle the size of a grain of sand hitting the exposed telescope in just the right place would ruin it all...I’m afraid something will go wrong but I’m praying nothing does!
Stephen Bates 6 months from launch until the JWST even gets first light. Hope you have a comfy seat! But yea I’m with you I can’t wait to see it’s version of Hubble’s deep field.
I cannot wait. There's going to be a lot of nail biting days. Once it is in orbit with all instruments successfully deployed and functioning I will finally be relaxed. So what like a year after launch? Ha ha ha
It all seems so complicated and fragile. The telescope with all of its parts, the mission, the entire thing. I hope it all comes out just as planned because this is gonna be really big. Best of luck to all involved.
Northrop and Grumman. I trust those people. And also the Ariane V has a very good record. Its engineers from manufacturer Airbus learnt a great deal from two failed launches and three partial failures, all in the beginning of the project. Since then 82 consecutive launches have been successful. I think it will all work out just fine. 🙂👍

This isn't a documentary so much as corporate propaganda made by the manufacturer of the telescope, Northrop Grumman, to keep that sweet sweet congressional funding pouring in. I really hope they get this done, it is already $9 billion over its original budget of $1 billion U.S. So 10 times what they said it would cost, but they have NASA by the short hairs on this and know they can basically delay as long as they want and keep raking in $$$ because now it is far too late to pull funding, too big to fail.

Amazing to think what we've achieved in the few hundred years we've had modern science. Imagine where we'll be in another 500. For all our many flaws, we are an amazing species
we will have SUVs with quicker responding heated seats - unfortunately thats the reality of our species the last 50 years, no major innovations in transportation for eg. We now travel (in the air) slowed on average than we did in the 1960s. All aircraft have slowed down.
Givr it 20 years, and the world will be unrecognizable as the world 200 years ago is from now. Our duty is to not kill ourselves before we reach that point.
Imagine what we could've done if we didn't build guns? The 2008 US economic bailout was more money that the entire NASA lifetime budget up to that date.
the launch of the James Webb telescope by the French team in French Guiana was so precise that Naza communicated that the telescope would have years of life more than what had been planned ... indeed the propellant on board in the telescope which was intended to periodically readjust the position of the telescope in space, was saved, because it was not used to correct the trajectory! a huge success for Ariane and this French team. Naza is happy, ESA is happy ... i'm so happy !!
Ram. JR: I don't know about Reno Raines, but my reason for saying the same thing as he did is that I am 76 years old, and I hope I'm still alive when they manage to get it in orbit and hopefully succeed. But old age and it's complications could prevent me from seeing it. So "I hope I'm around when the first pictures come back" is something I would say too.

Johan Jacobs the original coment was about challenger disaster,it happened because of the failed o ring which is at the srb, and the srb does not contain liquid fuel.
Johan Jacobs and the original comment that mentioned ice was formed at the o ring was because the low temperature at the area not because of the liquid oxygen .
So all the flat earthers think that the thousands of people that put this together, along with every other satellite launch (Programmers, installers, techs, engineers, linemen ect) are all dumber than them or are in on the conspiracy..... They are missing out on this amazing and wondrous achievement and they crap on humanity by calling it fake.

I remember joining a “save the James Webb Space Teleacope” group back in 2010. Hard to believe 10 years have passed. Let’s hope it goes ahead in Oct 2021.
As we get closer to launching the James Webb Space Telescope ... I give thanks for all at Northrop Grumman & throughout the world who are involved with the scientists/technicians/engineers plus thousands more! Amazing and scary this launch and deployment is to be. Science is so important and furthering mankind's knowledge of space and the universe is accentual for us as a species ...
Jameson 1776 I think he was referring to the Mars Climate Orbiter, which crashed on Mars because it was coded to use metric units but received imperial ones (flew on a way lower orbit than it was supposed to, atmosphere made the rest)
@@billdevine1270 Not all in vain, though -- the James Webb will now shield itself from the sun by donning a full body burka and peering at the universe through a tiny eye slit. It will also shut itself off five times a day for prayer. Very progressive !

The world will learn and benefit so much from what you have developed over the last decade. Congratulations to all of you. Can't wait to see the pictures of the early stage universe.

Came back to watch this. I just wanted a happy cry. Truly the most unbelievable thing achieved by people. Hard to explain how emotional this entire project makes me. I can't imagine how this impacted the thousands of truly prodigal experts who spent over a decade, or ten thousand years worth of man-hours collectively to achieve this succinct dream of hope and wonder. Humans can do such truly beautiful things, but only when we work together and put greed to the side. I want to meet an engineer one day who worked on this and give them the biggest hug. It would be like meeting a rockstar. We may never do anything nearly as audacious as this, and we may never again achieve such a truly major achievement similar to James Webb. It only worked out because Americans and other agencies started it in when citizens still believed in science and technology, rather than today where they want subsidized billionaires and corporations.
@@phreephallin Nasa isn't the main problem.....Northrup is. They should have never gotten the contract to start with. Nasa should have known better, but it's not who you know, it's who you blow that counts, apparently....
I remember watching this as a 13 years old kid, the idea of james webb how fascinating and fantasy like it is, and now it's a reality and discovering so many things already after it's deployment!!, no words can express how happy i am❤ im looking forward to all the fascinating discoveries it will teach us
They can't afford to have it be trouble like Hubble. At least you could have sent a crew to fix Hubble. Like he said in the video, this will be a game changer. The stakes are unbelievably high with this thing.
Well, this one is much more difficult construction. Getting that folded thing straight and collimated is enormous challenge. There is many chances to optical mistakes. As a project I see this very suspicious, so many phases and critical components. Say there is 100 things having 99% reliability, then failure results 63% of probability. Success rates for rocket launches are about 95 - 98%
This miracle has the power to read the edge of a 1€ coin placed on the moon and the accuracy to map the heat signature of a bumblebee sitting next to the coin. Such brilliant scientists and engineers. My spectacles have trouble helping me read this as I type :0
Yes, though the space side of NG (the former TRW in Redondo Beach, CA) which contributed the "core" Spacecraft Element has always taken on "one of a kind" projects...and the NASA/STScI telescope and other JWST partners have also accomplished amazing things, right? :-) Will cross my fingers and pray for success next year!
good luck . Una nueva esperanza para todos nosotros . una ventana a nuestro cosmos .....el milagro mecanico ....gracias a todos los trabajadores que lo hacen posible . GRACIAS .
Amazing. I cannot wait. I looked at flights to French Guiana because I'd love to see the launch. But it is super expensive so I hope they stream it so I can watch from home.
It wasn't lost, it was a top secret satellite, so clearly if they had put on paper the exact payload detach time someone could have calculated its position after launch and looked at it. They just pretended they lost it and passed it as a big conspiracy, like they did with aliens in the 50's... Left SpaceX to have to just say their launch went as expected on their end, and blamed it on the company that made the adapter, a company that just happens to be a gigantic military industrial corporation with top secret clearance and all the money they could ever want from the US military...
Daddy Donut oh i know about i just forgot about zuma launched by SpaceX Falcon 9 nd it is in space they are making fake news about zuma that they lost it
Phải chờ thêm 6 tháng nữa mới có thể chiêm ngưỡng tuyệt phẩm của James Webb tuy hơi lâu nhưng cũng phải chấp nhận thôi , rượu ngon thì phải để lâu , món ngon cũng phải ướp lâu mới lên mùi
David Thomas I have tried several times to ask them to do just that. Without intelligence they must rely on conditioned response to avoid danger. Instinct only guides them in life and prevents them from actually proving what they were bred to believe.
This is unfathomable science. Just the fact that JWST is travelling so fast and yet is peeling layers to get deployed is mind boggling. Cant wait for 1st images. How much further can we look into Ultra deep field? How much closer can we look into a planetary system? Kudus to everyone who created this from inception to orbital launch!

I only will agree with you when we put a submersible in Europa's ocean.
@@gnappibr that will probably happen, might take 50 or 60 years but it will happen
Givr it 20 years, and the world will be unrecognizable as the world 200 years ago is from now.
Our duty is to not kill ourselves before we reach that point.
Imagine what we could've done if we didn't build guns?
The 2008 US economic bailout was more money that the entire NASA lifetime budget up to that date.
Words cannot express how excited I am about this!
the launch of the James Webb telescope by the French team in French Guiana was so precise that Naza communicated that the telescope would have years of life more than what had been planned ... indeed the propellant on board in the telescope which was intended to periodically readjust the position of the telescope in space, was saved, because it was not used to correct the trajectory! a huge success for Ariane and this French team. Naza is happy, ESA is happy ... i'm so happy !!
I hope I'm around when the first pictures come back.
Why won't you be?

Ram. JR: I don't know about Reno Raines, but my reason for saying the same thing as he did is that I am 76 years old, and I hope I'm still alive when they manage to get it in orbit and hopefully succeed. But old age and it's complications could prevent me from seeing it. So "I hope I'm around when the first pictures come back" is something I would say too.
@@charlessmith6412 well, you will probrably be there. As society grows older and older, the average person lives more.
You are probrably (if you take care) gonna live to atleast 89-95.
Even with that you can live more and more. Hope the best for you :).
CardZ: Thanks. I hope you're right. Best wishes to you, also.
So pumped we are getting closer to this launch date!
Beautiful animation with a great level of detail. I love how the fairings wobble after being ejected.
Best of luck with the launch and assembly.
Shame we have to wait so long after so many delays
@@paulsaid1365 ohh
What a wonderful example of brilliant engineering.. WOW
I hope no Kerbals were injured in the production of this video.
A JWST mod for KSP could be awsome !
SRBs are gay.
That Silkie Chicken indeed
No, but many Bothans died.
one frisky nublick!
Can't wait till my great great grandkids get to see this thing finally launch
Light this candle
They will enjoy Half-Life 3 in their cold fusion-powered houses.
This project is madness! Can't wait for the launch!
It makes me emotional thinking about how far we have come as a species, and how much further we will go. Truly astonishing what people are capable of.
I hope that if an engineer says, "Wait a sec...there's some ice forming on the O-ring of the booster rocket" - they'll listen to him.
@@iconsumedmt1350 dont belittle people who live way harder lives than u do buddy
@Johan Jacobs nobody mentioned liquid oxygen.
Johan Jacobs the original coment was about challenger disaster,it happened because of the failed o ring which is at the srb, and the srb does not contain liquid fuel.
Johan Jacobs and the original comment that mentioned ice was formed at the o ring was because the low temperature at the area not because of the liquid oxygen .
" They " won't be there because it is not the same team in charge.
So all the flat earthers think that the thousands of people that put this together, along with every other satellite launch (Programmers, installers, techs, engineers, linemen ect) are all dumber than them or are in on the conspiracy..... They are missing out on this amazing and wondrous achievement and they crap on humanity by calling it fake.
I know, right?! I often hear them say, "Well, that's all just computer generated animations, they're lying to you!" lmao!
Nathan... Their loss. Stupid is, as stupid does.
sfhang no groups of idiots, got it....? Perhaps they don't all agree on all subjects,but they agree the earth is flat and that is how I am choosing to group them.
Átomo Don’t forget trolls. I think there have to be a few that just get a kick out of getting people to try to counter their ‘arguments’.
Atomo - there is another group, the wilfully ignorant and stupid. I would put them in there.
Space makes me appreciate life even more!
This is the one I have been anticipating for so long. I look forward to its launch.
a great investment
Umberto Fournier Hell yes it is
Just hope it doesn't have a mirror problem like what happened to Hubble
It has adjustable mirrors
@@darkhoodchief But it takes time to fix.
@@nazimhassan2951 I think NASA has bigger problems to consider than trying to conserve time.
@@darkhoodchief I think nasa is becoming cult for space projects rather than trying to help them...is not it?
@@nazimhassan2951 I don't think you even know what JWST is for
So almost a month of "please don't fail" deployment terror... Got it.
It's just like the 7 minutes of terror, but longer.
no, 160 days
In - 290c +200c temperature range ;)
More like 5 months
What a wonderful example of man's ingenuity ! The Technology is mind blowing !!
Yeah, it is as mind-blowing AF
I remember joining a “save the James Webb Space Teleacope” group back in 2010. Hard to believe 10 years have passed. Let’s hope it goes ahead in Oct 2021.
Aaand it successfully launched on Christmas 2021!
I just love how the moon stops spinning around earth and watches the James Webb Space Telescope flies away while building up it's body
I got to see this telescope under construction! I visited nasa, it was awesome! I learned so much.
where was the facility you visited? I think I'm jealous!!
@@highpointsights It's in Northrop Grumman facility in Redondo Beach, the tall building on the corner of Space Park Dr. and Redondo Beach Ave
3....2.....1....Lift off. Well done! Hopefully everything works fine. We will see in the coming days!!! Astonishing!!!
As we get closer to launching the James Webb Space Telescope ... I give thanks for all at Northrop Grumman & throughout the world who are involved with the scientists/technicians/engineers plus thousands more! Amazing and scary this launch and deployment is to be. Science is so important and furthering mankind's knowledge of space and the universe is accentual for us as a species ...
How amazing that this is happening right now, good luck to the JWST!!
One of the greatest feats of mankind, please NASA don’t screw it up using imperial units 😅
Sebastian Sanchez the ESA is launching it on an Ariane 5 so its not on NASA just mostly built and funded by NASA
Sebastian Sanchez RIP
You have to for the rest
Jameson 1776 I think he was referring to the Mars Climate Orbiter, which crashed on Mars because it was coded to use metric units but received imperial ones (flew on a way lower orbit than it was supposed to, atmosphere made the rest)
xD
Years of hardwork will pay back soon. Have a healthy space journey JWST. Hope you will find many unknown secrets of this universe.
anyone seeing this at the end of July 2019 and Webb Telescope still seating unfinished at NASA ?
august 11 2019 : belgium... launch that thing (it can fail as well 6 years from now then right now.. it's always gonna be 50 pct luck imo)
@Progressive Nice ... stunning tech and i'm as a belgian supporting the american progressives lol . have a nice day
@@runePV At this point I'd assume we have a way better than 50 % success rate.
Well NASA was busy doing Islamic outreach for 8 years.
@@billdevine1270 Not all in vain, though -- the James Webb will now shield itself from the sun by donning a full body burka and peering at the universe through a tiny eye slit. It will also shut itself off five times a day for prayer. Very progressive !
I hope you got the mirrors right this time
L2, yes, This time NASA never get change to send people up there and fix it.
This is truly amazing. The team of engineers and scientists have created something that is uber human. You are all true Rockstars, thank you! The world will learn and benefit so much from what you have developed over the last decade. Congratulations to all of you. Can't wait to see the pictures of the early stage universe.
If you came back in July 2022 to watch where it all began, you are a LEGEND.
NASA: We made it! Now we just have to wait for the first picture.
Sun: *Sneezes*
NASA: 😰
😂
Nooo!!! Hahaha...
Wow just amazing the amount of work this endeavor took! Congratulations to everyone involved in this project! Godspeed!
YESSS !!! Go humans, this is the greatest eyeglass ever made. Praying all works as planned, thank you for all who pay and worked tirelessly...
All who pay?
I paid for this stupid thing and every other good tax paying american citizen.
sageminentjunky 51 definitely worth it, your money will contribute to make incredible discoveries that will make humanity evolve
James web send its first image while adjusting it's mirrors, it's mind blowing. Looking forward to explore the universe once it is fully functional.
Le monde entier doit participer au financement d'un projet, on doit remercier toutes les équipes qui ont participé au projet pour le bonheur que va nous procurer ce télescope. J'ai hâte de voir les résultats
I have been waiting for years, wish i was on the team! Such amazing discoveries await.
A video from 4 years ago detailing the historic events unfolding before us today
Amazing isnt it
I hope when I come back to this video it will have left this planet and open its eyes safely and for the next decade we will be able to see the marvels of space in a matter of months good luck JWST
Wow.. a lot of steps in this deployment and an awful lot can go wrong during this whole process.. good luck guys... your gonna need it !!
Really hope that the launch goes well and it doesn't just blow up on the launchpad.
Pretty sure certain people would kill themselves if they watched that happen
The Ariane 5 has had a history of blowing up. I just hope Arianespace will do their best not to repeat it in the most expensive and important undertaking they will ever commit.
It's French. What can go wrong?
@@jemuelmongado5030 Ariane 5 is statistically one of the most reliable launchers ever built. They had one catastrophic failure due to a simple stupid coding error, NASA simply picked the most reliable rocket they could.
@@cosmicandrew50 Yeah since I've written my comment I've searched more about the Ariane V. Its track record is amazing, that one failure becomes easy to overlook.
Havent been this excited since 2004 (rover mars landings).
This telescope is going to be absolutely EPIC.
If the thing ever ever ever gets deployed!!!! Damnit i been anxiously waiting freaking 10 damn years!!!!!!!!!
May this nasa james webb space telescope will succeed inthe launching day and into his final destination to make us proud and get the perfect image of our universe that been long fascinating mankind,welldone all scientist all over the world for the work that to make it all happen
I'm honored name after my older brother..rest well my brother
Tony Banana You never heard of Telescope Webb?
First rate graphics and as interesting to watch as sci-fi!
CGI
kudos to the animators for including the fairing wobble post-separation!
Yes. Background music is a little loud.
Came back to watch this. I just wanted a happy cry. Truly the most unbelievable thing achieved by people. Hard to explain how emotional this entire project makes me. I can't imagine how this impacted the thousands of truly prodigal experts who spent over a decade, or ten thousand years worth of man-hours collectively to achieve this succinct dream of hope and wonder. Humans can do such truly beautiful things, but only when we work together and put greed to the side. I want to meet an engineer one day who worked on this and give them the biggest hug. It would be like meeting a rockstar.
We may never do anything nearly as audacious as this, and we may never again achieve such a truly major achievement similar to James Webb. It only worked out because Americans and other agencies started it in when citizens still believed in science and technology, rather than today where they want subsidized billionaires and corporations.
Wow. what an amazing design. The engineers and designers did an amazing job.
Still one year to go. Can't wait any longer. Thank you.
Here it is, 2019, I wonder if I'll be here making a post 15 years from
now asking when will it be
launched?
Cost plus contracting and corporate welfare. A pox on NASA, Boeing, Northrup and their fleecing of American taxpayers.
I thought it was recently and FINALLY FINISHED?
@@phreephallin Nasa isn't the main problem.....Northrup is. They should have never gotten the contract to start with. Nasa should have known better, but it's not who you know, it's who you blow that counts, apparently....
Yes sir I thought they have already launch it,any idea when they will launch
@@keithirvine1 It isn't put together with Velcro
I remember watching this as a 13 years old kid,
the idea of james webb how fascinating and fantasy like it is, and now it's a reality and discovering so many things already after it's deployment!!, no words can express how happy i am❤ im looking forward to all the fascinating discoveries it will teach us
I am excited and cant wait. I hope this wont be trouble like the hubble
They can't afford to have it be trouble like Hubble. At least you could have sent a crew to fix Hubble. Like he said in the video, this will be a game changer. The stakes are unbelievably high with this thing.
They have learned a lot from building the Hubble , they won't make the mirror mistake.
Well, this one is much more difficult construction. Getting that folded thing straight and collimated is enormous challenge. There is many chances to optical mistakes.
As a project I see this very suspicious, so many phases and critical components. Say there is 100 things having 99% reliability, then failure results 63% of probability. Success rates for rocket launches are about 95 - 98%
bekanav 5% chance for rocket/launch failure is ENORMOUS...needs to be like .01-.1%
_____iBeg_____ Of course failure rate should be lower than it is, but so far it has been 2-5 failures/100 launches.
That was 3.5 years ago. Imagine what we will be doing 3.5 years from now...
Who's watching this after the actual launch ?
Yes me
You
its freaking epic and the launch was too! this is the only glimpse of hope i have left for humanity
I’m gonna tell my grandkids in the future that we back then we actually thought this was going to launch in a year or two
And work
31st October 2021
Yeah, it was supposed to launch in 2018.
@@nouser129 I think you mean 2007.
IF IT HADNT BEEN FOR CHINA AND CORONAVIRUS PANDEMICS

This miracle has the power to read the edge of a 1€ coin placed on the moon and the accuracy to map the heat signature of a bumblebee sitting next to the coin. Such brilliant scientists and engineers. My spectacles have trouble helping me read this as I type :0
Ditto on previous comments. You've got truly amazing engineers, but dang. This is so bananas complex and delicate.
Yes, though the space side of NG (the former TRW in Redondo Beach, CA) which contributed the "core" Spacecraft Element has always taken on "one of a kind" projects...and the NASA/STScI telescope and other JWST partners have also accomplished amazing things, right? :-) Will cross my fingers and pray for success next year!
good luck . Una nueva esperanza para todos nosotros . una ventana a nuestro cosmos .....el milagro mecanico ....gracias a todos los trabajadores que lo hacen posible . GRACIAS .
Amazing. I cannot wait. I looked at flights to French Guiana because I'd love to see the launch. But it is super expensive so I hope they stream it so I can watch from home.
Telescope: Finally ready to take space pictures
Astroid: Hello there
*asteroid
Humans are amazing !💐
And it finally launch, I'm so excited
mid 2000s: ISS would be the most complex space creation ever made.
Webb: hold my beer.
mid 2000s? lol huh?
late 90s*
Nice maths bro
ISS isn't exactly a cakewalk tho..
Good old Northrop and their payload adaptors. Tbh Zuma is probably still in space.
Loui Coleman what is Zuma?
Nosty GamerLV a military satellite that was “lost” in space
It wasn't lost, it was a top secret satellite, so clearly if they had put on paper the exact payload detach time someone could have calculated its position after launch and looked at it. They just pretended they lost it and passed it as a big conspiracy, like they did with aliens in the 50's... Left SpaceX to have to just say their launch went as expected on their end, and blamed it on the company that made the adapter, a company that just happens to be a gigantic military industrial corporation with top secret clearance and all the money they could ever want from the US military...
Daddy Donut oh i know about i just forgot about zuma launched by SpaceX Falcon 9 nd it is in space they are making fake news about zuma that they lost it
Guys, what if Zuma doesn't exist and they just pranked the conspiracy theorists.
Phải chờ thêm 6 tháng nữa mới có thể chiêm ngưỡng tuyệt phẩm của James Webb tuy hơi lâu nhưng cũng phải chấp nhận thôi , rượu ngon thì phải để lâu , món ngon cũng phải ướp lâu mới lên mùi
What an astonishing achievement. Good luck JWST, good luck human kind. From a former astronomer, a PhD in Astronomy.
I have an idea for a reality tv show, lets get all the flat earthers together on a big boat and send them off to find the edge of our flat planet 😆
David Thomas I have tried several times to ask them to do just that. Without intelligence they must rely on conditioned response to avoid danger. Instinct only guides them in life and prevents them from actually proving what they were bred to believe.
ive discussed the topic with them loonies before. energy efficiency is too much for their pea brains to grasp.
David Thomas they cannot comprehend the overall complexity of our spheric earth
@David Thomas: and call it of course The Ship of Fools.
@@Billy_Darley I wouldn't be able to do that. I would fucking kill myself from the ionizing stupidity destroying my brain cells...
I can't wait. Get this thing up there!
Whos ready to see back in time cause I sure am.
This is unfathomable science. Just the fact that JWST is travelling so fast and yet is peeling layers to get deployed is mind boggling. Cant wait for 1st images. How much further can we look into Ultra deep field? How much closer can we look into a planetary system? Kudus to everyone who created this from inception to orbital launch!
This makes me cry. ( in a good way)
I am going to try my hardest to be there on launch day.
Great video (but the music is far too loud).
Best wishes for the peaceful exploration of space.
Congratulations to who works on this amazing mission, God bless to you all.
Tomorrow is the day we've been waiting for! Fingers crossed!
