Welcome to Telescope. There is a lot of darkness in this world and there is not enough light. We will allow other posts to offer you a daily mood. In ARS Technica, we will take a different way, which will be inspired by the very real pictures of a universe that is full of stars and surprises.
Was the James WebSpace telescope worth it?
Well, Billion is 10 billion A lot of Even when the money has spread over a few decades, it is a huge part of NASA’s annual science budget. (And recently given Trump administration’s attack On NASA’s science budget, the money is going to be fully tough.)
However, it is difficult to put the price of our species about the natural world and the wider universe we are floating. And the web is doing a wonderful job of it.
In 2009, NASA launched a wide field infrared survey Explorer, or Way, mission to conduct infrared observations. It was the latest in a line of infrared infrastructure, and it cost about 3 % due to a web telescope.

In today’s photo, the planet’s nebula is related to the NGC 1514. In 2010, Mike Wrestler, a NASA project scientist, discovered the “ring” around the nebula of the planets. Now, thanks to the web, the circles – which are potentially small dust seeds, which are heated from a white sowing star through ultra -violet light, can be clearly seen. And, oh my, they are amazing.
Clearly in the web picture, compared to what came before, is noteworthy. So, is it looking at the universe in a new light that is worth 10 billion? I definitely think so, but I am writing a weekly story called Tuesday telescope, so it is safe to say that I am biased.
