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]
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 ]
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.
Though I’m not shook by that assessment, I know where I stand. So, let me–a Zillenial–break down the 29 most important Gen Z slang terms for you to whip out at the next family gathering. And ...
In addition to performing continuing science operations of HST and preparing for scientific exploration with JWST and Roman, STScI manages and operates the Mikulski Archive for Space Telescopes (MAST), which holds data from numerous active and legacy missions, including HST, JWST, Kepler, TESS, Gaia, and Pan-STARRS.
Ackuna is a crowdsourced translation platform launched in 2011, targeted at mobile and desktop app developers. [2] Unlike similar platforms, Ackuna does not charge, relying on a network of freelance, volunteer translators to provide the translations. The site boasted 6,000 registered translators in April 2013.
On the TV show Farscape, John Crichton is injected with bacteria called translator microbes which function as a sort of universal translator. The microbes colonize the host's brainstem and translate anything spoken to the host, passing along the translated information to the host's brain.
