How do they decide on which direction to point the James Webb telescope?
In: 14
They are going to point it anywhere they want. There are lots and lots of things to look at, not just the cosmic microwave background but distant galaxies and quasars and black holes, and nearby exoplanets and nebulae, and all sorts of things. There will be a long line of requests from astronomers and astrophysicists to schedule time to “borrow” the telescope and study the object of their choosing.
