OK. You have my attention now 8)

It would be a bit of a bastard if the optics ended up looking like shit and in need of repair like the Hubble did. At least they could innovate getting a man all the way over to the L2 point to do a fix.  :D

Yeah that's the tense part. It takes 6 months to get there and there's zero hope of fixing if something goes wrong.

JWST is using deformable mirrors as part of the adaptive optics to help avoid that sort of situation.

Yeah, that's one of the bummers about going out to L2.  JWST is only designed to last about 5-10 years with no hope of repair missions that helped keep Hubble going for 30+ years. 

Then again, who knows?  Maybe Elon Musk can get one of his Star Ships to do a repair mission in about 10 years or so.

The JWST is still just at low altitude orbiting Earth at increased speed, and it will take several months before it arrives on location somewhere in our Solar System to study the UNIVERSE. What at joke - http://heiwaco.com/moontravelb1.htm

What's the joke in taking a month to travel 1.5 million km? The several months you say is not the time it takes to get there, but the time it takes to unfold the mirror and sun shield. It's not something they want to screw up.

Good question. Why cannot NASA build faster space crafts so it goes faster to go to Mars and Venus? 200 days to Mars, 110 to Venus. Isn't it slow or long? Why waste so much time. Better is to go faster!

While getting to Mars in a few days would be great and all, there is the issue of slowing down so you can land on the thing

Anyway, that's another topic dont you agree? I didn't bring you out of your isolation so you can dump on every science related thread with your weird thoughts.

What do you think of the James Webb telescope? It's not breaking or leaving the Earths orbit so you should be comfortable with that aspect

This JWST is a big joke. Not even a hoax!! It is a space telescope that has just been lifted off Earth to be put somewhere in space close topPlanet Saturn 20 light minutes away from Earth to look at the Universe 100 million light years away ... for a closer look. The JWST is unmanned, so no toilet is required.
Compare with Lone Skum's SpaceWC craft going to planet Mars 200 days one way with no toilet aboard.

Saturn is not 1.5 million km away lol

Also it's going to look much further than 100 million light years distant. I suggest you read up more on where this telescope is going and what it's mission is before you comment again

The thing that's going to make hubble look like dog shit if it doesn't explode first.

Webb adds to the capabilities of NASA's Great Observatories (of the original four, Hubble and Chandra still operating), but does not replace the capabilities of Hubble. Webb only operates as low as 0.6 um wavelength, so will not be able to take "natural color" images (as the human eye would see it) of planets, nebulae, galaxies, etc., nor investigate any phenomena in the UV. Webb's advantage is extending the distance (and hence the ability to view back further in time) by having a larger mirror that can collect dimmer light, and having a wavelength capability farther out  in the IR to see objects that have been red-shifted more (because they're farther away and hence travelling faster away from us, and emit farther out in the IR).

Added capability, not better quality replacement capability.

?? Anyway the James Webb Space Telescope is going to be located at a stable Lagrange point in an Earth orbit far away (maybe close to planet Saturn?) so that pictures can be taken of the end of the Universe at a billion light years away. Just imagine that. Photons have arrived from a billion light years away!! I can see the same thing just looking out of my window. I explain more at http://heiwaco.com/moontravelb1.htm .

I won't be reading your explanation, as you clearly don't even understand what a Lagrangian point in Earth's orbit is, if you think it's near Saturn.

Earth's most distant Lagrangian point (L3) is approximately 182 million miles away on the opposite side of the Sun. Saturn is approximately 746 million miles away (at closest approach), at least 3 times further than Earth's L3.

Let us know if you think they are close to each other
The L2 point (between Earth and Sun)  is about 1.5 million kilometers or 0.01 au from Earth and thus very far from planet Saturn. It seems the JWST instruments will just record infrared light for unknown reasons. I simply consider the JWST a $1000 million hoax. Imagine paying that for a telescope that can only record infrared light.

It sees in infrared because the things that are the farthest away from us in the universe are red-shifted. That means it can see things that are farther away than anything Hubble could hope to see - things that are moving away from the Milky Way so fast that visible light has shifted into the IR part of the spectrum. It's not an unknown reason. It's a very well known and well shared reason that literally anyone who has paid the slightest amount of attention has already heard and understood.
