Jwst launches in less than 3 hours

Just read what I write, i.e, "It seems JWST is becoming a flop". So far JWST has only produced some low quality photos of unknown objects.

Actually, the few test images released so far have been of a far higher quality than anything before.  Hardly a flop considering that it isn't scheduled to do any science observations for another month or so yet.

They cannot possibly explain the birth and evolution of the Universe. Thus a FLOP!

Studying and explaining are two different things.

According NASA JWST (topic) is supposed to study the end of the Universe and explain how it came about.

No, NASA never said any such thing.  Please stop saying such stupid things.

I just quote NASA :
“The Webb telescope will be the premier observatory of the next decade, serving thousands of astronomers worldwide. It will study every phase in the history of our Universe, ranging from the first luminous glows after the Big Bang, to the formation of solar systems capable of supporting life on planets like Earth, to the evolution of our own Solar System.”
https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/webb/about/index.html

Hmmm...  Nothing about the end of the universe.  Nice to know.  Now shut up about it already.

Topic is still the JWST!  Heiwa just copy-pastes quotes with no understanding. His website tells you everything you need to know about him.

How is something a flop when it's still a month+ away from being operational?

If all goes well throughout June, JWST becomes operational and starts sending images of the deep cosmos back to us, will it still be a flop? That seems to be your benchmark for flops - No images. What will you say when we start getting images? Will you move the goalposts somewhere else for what you consider a flop?

Please, NASA & Co has since many years promised that the JWST will peer back 13.5 billion years to see the first galaxies being born after the Big Bang and so far with  JWST in position, it hasn't seen anything = flop. Personally I believe the JWST isn't even in space at L2. It is a hoax to steal money from tax payers from the start. Like most NASA projects.

But JWST/NASA promises to show pictures of the Universe from 13.5 billion years back and so far 0 is shown! I can see the universe from my window without a telescope and am happy with it, i.e, just plenty stars and galaxies everywhere. No big deal. Wherever  I look same things. Stars and galaxies.  You sound like Elon Musk to me. He promised to fly me to planet Mars and when I asked about details, what to do during the 200+ days trip, he just suggested enjoy it.

I await the pictures by JWST of the first galaxies formed 13.8 billion years ago just after some Big Bang. I really wonder what they look like today. BTW why do you think I am a crazed lone conspiracy theorist? I just consider that NASA produces garbage about space since its formation.

I love all the amazing pictures and discoveries humanity has created and it's very sad that some people think the rest of the world is as limited as they are and see lies and conspiracies instead of the wonders all around us.  How bleak.  I suppose it's a blessing you can't understand what you're missing.

Yes, humans in space would explain all about space, so no space telescopes were necessary, but it seems humans in space required food and fecal facilities so space telescopes became a musk must. But the result is what it is. Just shaky photos of far away galaxies.

first real JWST pictures not due until 12 July!! https://www.space.com/james-webb-space-telescope-first-images-july-12 . Nobody knows what they will look like ! We are talking about  pictures of the first galaxies, early in the history of the universe >13 billion light years away!

We've already received some images, obviously. And yeah, when JWST is done with all it's configuring, testing, we should start to see a lot more images. Just like the same process Hubble went through. So we wait until the pie is done baking. And that seems like mid-July. Looking forward to it.

first real JWST pictures not due until 12 July!! https://www.space.com/james-webb-space-telescope-first-images-july-12 . Nobody knows what they will look like ! We are talking about  pictures of the first galaxies, early in the history of the universe >13 billion light years away!

We've already received some images, obviously. And yeah, when JWST is done with all it's configuring, testing, we should start to see a lot more images. Just like the same process Hubble went through. So we wait until the pie is done baking. And that seems like mid-July. Looking forward to it.

Yes, that's what NASA says. 12 July 2022 the pictures of the first galaxies being born billion years agoa  will be published.

Cool. I look forward to 7/12. Thanks for the update.

There are billions of galaxies in the Universe and each galaxy consists of billions of stars and it seems many galaxies have high velocities in an expanding Universe trying to escape detection. I really wonder how the JWST staff keeps track of all these galaxies and which ones are old and new. I can see the Milky Way and Andromeda galaxy from  my window and I assume the other billion galaxies are beyond the horizon.
