The James Webb Space Telescope is a space telescope operated by NASA and designed primarily to conduct infrared astronomy.Launched in December 2021, the spacecraft has been in a halo orbit around the second Sun–Earth Lagrange point (L 2), about 1.5 million kilometers (900,000 mi) from Earth, since January 2022.
A giant solar sail recently unfurled by Nasa has been spotted “tumbling” through space.. Astronomers captured the 80-square-metre object, which was unfurled last week, appearing to fluctuate ...
An artist's rendition of Kepler-62f, a potentially habitable exoplanet discovered using data transmitted by the Kepler space telescope. The list of exoplanets detected by the Kepler space telescope contains bodies with a wide variety of properties, with significant ranges in orbital distances, masses, radii, composition, habitability, and host star type.
