Space telescopes that collect particles, such as cosmic ray nuclei and/or electrons, as well as instruments that aim to detect gravitational waves, are also listed. Missions with specific targets within the Solar System (e.g., the Sun and its planets ), are excluded; see List of Solar System probes for these, and List of Earth observation ...
A 20–30 meter balloon telescope has been suggested. [39] The balloon would be transparent on one side, and have a circular reflecting mirror on the other side. [39] There are two main designs using this principle. [39] Large Balloon Reflector (LBR) (sub-orbital version) Space-based Large Balloon Reflector (LBR) TeraHertz Space Telescope (TST ...
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is a space telescope designed to conduct infrared astronomy. As the largest telescope in space, it is equipped with high-resolution and high-sensitivity instruments, allowing it to view objects too old, distant , or faint for the Hubble Space Telescope . [ 9 ]

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope is by far the most powerful observatory ever launched into space.. Even Webb's very first images show why NASA spent 25 years and $10 billion. The Hubble Space ...
Four Great Observatories. NASA's series of Great Observatories satellites are four large, powerful space-based astronomical telescopes launched between 1990 and 2003. They were built with different technology to examine specific wavelength/energy regions of the electromagnetic spectrum: gamma rays, X-rays, visible and ultraviolet light, and infrared light.
The U.S. space agency's SPHEREx space telescope is tentatively scheduled to be launched on Friday aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California.
This visualization follows the Roman Space Telescope on its trajectory to the Sun–Earth Lagrange point L2. The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope (shortened as the Roman Space Telescope, Roman, or RST) is a NASA infrared space telescope in development and scheduled to launch to a Sun–Earth L 2 orbit by May 2027.
