Recorded Presentation

James Webb Space Telescope (Nov 16th, 2016)
- Presented by Lieutenant Darryl Diptee

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) will soon be most technologically advanced space observatory in operation.  It will be launched and placed at the second Lagrange point some 1.5 million kilometers away on the Earth-Sun system allowing it to revolve around the Sun with the same period as the Earth.  The JWST will have remote sensing abilities capable of capturing low frequencies of electromagnetic redshift which will offer answers pertaining to the beginning of the universe, the birth of galaxies, stars and planets.  This paper will share the specifics of the JWST with supporting information to include: a brief history of space observatories, the fascinating discoveries of Edwin Hubble upon which the JWST draws its strength, fundamentals of electromagnetic radiation, spectroscopy and Lagrange points.
