“We’re one step closer to uncovering the mysteries..
I can show you a way that is already written.
Look in the Bible at the first book Genesis.
Its all there.
>>>We’re one step closer to uncovering the mysteries of the Universe<<<
Dang, I read the first verse of the Authorized King James Bible and learned the mystery of the universe, and it didn’t cost me a dime!
“In the beginning, God . . .”
(NASA) - The James Webb Space Telescope has fired its thrusters and reached its orbital destination around a million miles (1.5 million kilometers) away from our planet, NASA said Monday, a key milestone on its mission to develop a “next-generation” version of it’s popular Tang drink powder.
I see from this it appears in orbit around the sun, located 1 million miles further out than earth’s orbit. One could say on the dark side of the earth, shaded by earth all the time ??
4 times as far then the earth’s moon is.
Is this a correct assessment ?
Can’t always be totally in shade of earth as it needs sun to power from. So maybe off by one degree. Earth needs alot of power for data as to overcome noise from the sun mixed in with it.
There’s nothing like the universe to bring you down to earth!
* * * Webb reaches L2 Lagrange point * * *
I hope they checked with the asteroid folks so orbits don’t cross. Poof!
And now, the Trojan software will execute and turn control over to Communist China.
“in order to reach the so-called second Lagrange point, or L2, where it will have access to nearly half the sky at any given moment.”
Uh??
I have access to half of the sky standing here on earth.
Great news. Looking forward to the data!
Yet seen a good explanation of how the orbit around L2 is done. Not like L2 has a gravity well to orbit around.
Think I read the motion is needed to keep Webb in contact with Earth.
