As the James Webb Space Telescope makes its final burn to enter its orbit around the sun, NASA will broadcast a Science Live show about the event.
The James Webb Space Telescope, the next-generation space telescope from NASA, the European Space Agency, and the Canadian Space Agency, was launched late last year and will soon arrive at its final destination, the L2 Lagrange Point orbiting the sun. As it makes its final burn to enter orbit, NASA will broadcast a Science Live show about what is planned for the telescope followed by a news conference about its current status, and you can watch along with both at home. Following its launch on December 25,2021, the James Webb Space Telescope had to travel nearly 1 million miles through space to reach its final orbit around the sun. It will be positioned in such a way that one half of the telescope which is protected by a sunshield will always be pointed toward the sun, and it will need only minimal power to keep it in its orbit.
