World's most powerful space telescope ready to launch

James Webb Space Telescope, the largest and most powerful space telescope ever constructed, will lift off on Christmas.

The USD 10bn project spanning over three decades, a collaboration between NASA, the European Space Agency, and the Canadian Space Agency, hopes to look further back in time than ever before - to find out more about the creation of the first stars and the beginnings of our Universe.

According to reports, After several technical and weather delays the James Webb Space Telescope will take off on a European Ariane rocket from French Guiana, NASA announced. 

The telescope will answer questions about the solar system, study exoplanets in new ways and look deeper into the universe than we've ever been able to.
