– Besides satisfying curiosity, what’s the big deal with the James Webb Space Telescope?

337 views

10 billion for a telescope with a lifespan of max 10 years seems like a waste. Are we going to get any info that’s going to make life better on this planet or is this all just a big curiosity satisfier?

If we knew how the discoveries made by James Webb would influence us in the future, we wouldnt need to make it.

Exploring the universe is no different than early explorers sailing the oceans.

They dont know exactly what they will find and have no idea how it will impact us in the next 1000 years.

But looking back, we’re certainly happy that they set sail right?
