See how the James Webb Space Telescope has revolutionized astronomy in just 3 years
On this day three years ago, we witnessed the nail-biting launch of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), the largest and most powerful telescope humans have ever sent into space. It took 30 years to build, but in three short years of operation, JWST has already revolutionized our view of the cosmos.
