The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is a space telescope designed to conduct infrared astronomy. As the largest telescope in space, it is equipped with high-resolution and high-sensitivity instruments, allowing it to view objects too old, distant , or faint for the Hubble Space Telescope . [ 9 ]
Technicians work on a mock-up of the JWST spacecraft bus in 2014 [1] The spacecraft bus is a carbon fibre box that houses systems of the telescope and so is the primary support element of the James Webb Space Telescope, launched on 25 December 2021. It hosts a multitude of computing, communication, propulsion, and structural components. [2]
Integrated Science Instrument Module (ISIM) is a component of the James Webb Space Telescope, a large international infrared space telescope launched on 25 December 2021. [1] ISIM is the heart of the JWST, and holds the main science payload which includes four science instruments and the fine guidance sensor.
The James Webb Space Telescope was released from the rocket upper stage 27 minutes after a flawless launch. [ 1 ] [ 14 ] Starting 31 minutes after launch, and continuing for about 13 days, JWST began the process of deploying its solar array, antenna, sunshield, and mirrors. [ 27 ]
The NIRSpec (Near-Infrared Spectrograph) is one of the four scientific instruments flown on the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). [2] The JWST is the follow-on mission to the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and is developed to receive more information about the origins of the universe by observing infrared light from the first stars and galaxies.

The temperature differences between the hot and cold sides of the James Webb Space Telescope five-layer sunshield. The sunshield acts as large parasol allowing the main mirror, optics, and instruments to passively cool to 40 kelvins (−233 °C; −388 °F) or cooler, [6] and is one of the enabling technologies that will allow the JWST to operate.
