James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) - Thermal Shield - JWST sunshield: Thermal Shield Deployment to Northrop Grumann, California, July 2014. The JWST will replace the Hubble Space Telescope in 2018. The Sunshield on Nasa's James Webb Space Telescope is the largest part of the observatory - five layers of thin membrane that must unfurl reliably in space to precise tolerances. Last week, for the first time, engineers stacked and unfurled a full-sized test unit of the Sunshield and it worked perfectly. The Sunshield is about the length of a tennis court, and will be folded up like an umbrella around the Webb telescope's mirrors and instruments during launch. Once it reaches its orbit, the Webb telescope will receive a command from Earth to unfold, and separate the Sunshield's five layers into their precisely stacked arrangement with its kite-like shape

James Webb Space Telescope Mirrors (JWST) - Testing of the JWST's mirrors: Examination of two mirrors of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) at Nasa's Goddard Space Center. The JWST will replace the Hubble Space Telescope in 2018. Equipped with a 6.5 m mirror, he will observe the universe mainly in infrared - Inside Nasa's Goddard Space Flight Center's giant clean room in Greenbelt, Md., JWST Optical Engineer Larkin Carey from Ball Aerospace, examines two test mirror segments recently placed on a black composite structure. This black composite structure is called the James Webb Space Telescope's “” Pathfinder”” and acts as a spine supporting the telescope's primary mirror segments. The Pathfinder is a non-flight prototype - The mirrors were placed on Pathfinder using a robotic arm move that involved highly trained engineers and technicians from Exelis, Northrop Grumman and NASA - The James Webb Space Telescope is the successor to NASA's Hubble Space Telescope. It will be the most pow

James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) - Artist View - The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) - Artist view - The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) will replace the Hubble Space Telescope in 2014. Equipped with a 6.5 m mirror, he will observe the universe mainly in infrared. The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is a large, infrared - optimized space telescope scheduled for launch in 2014. Equipped with a large mirror 6.5 meters (21.3 feet) in diameter, it will find the first galaxies that formed in the early Universe, connecting the Big Bang to our own Milky Way Galaxy and will reside in an orbit about 1.5 million km (1 million miles) from the Earth

James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) - JWST in clean room: Curvature measurements of the JWST Space Telescope (James Webb Space Telescope) at Nasa's Goddard Space Center. The JWST will replace the Hubble Space Telescope in 2018. Equipped with a 6.5 m mirror, he will observe the universe mainly in infrared. Engineers and technicians working on the James Webb Space Telescope successfully completed the first important optical measurement of Webb's fully assembled primary mirror, called a Center of Curvature test. Taking a “” before””” optical measurement of the telescope's deployed mirror is crucial before the telescope goes into several stages of rigorous mechanical testing. These tests will simulate the violent sound and vibration environments the telescope will experience inside its rocket on its way out into space. This environment is one of the most stressful structurally and could alter the shape and alignment of Webb's primary mirror, which could degrade or, in the worst case, ruin it

This environment is one of the most stressful structurally and could alter the shape and alignment of Webb's primary mirror, which could degrade or, in the worst case, ruin it

GAIA satellite - Illustration - View of the European satellite GAIA against a milky lane background. The objective of the Gaia mission is to carry out the largest possible census of the stars of our Galaxy and to create a 3D map of a very precise 3D map. The satellite will determine the position, color and proper movement of a billion stars. Gaia was launched since Kourou on December 19, 2013. Artist's print of Gaia. Gaia is an ambitious mission to chart a three - dimensional map of our Galaxy, the Milky Way, in the process revealing the composition, formation and evolution of the Galaxy. Gaia will provide unprecedented positional and radial velocity measurements with the accuracies needed to produce a stereoscopic and kinematic census of about one billion stars in our Galaxy and throughout the Local Group. This amounts to about 1 per cent of the Galactic stellar population. Combined with astrophysical information for each star, provided by on - board multi - colour photometry, these d

It is also used for the detection of extrasolar planets by observing the periodic micro-eclipses that these planets cause by passing in front of their mother star. Artist's view of COROT, the exoplanet hunter mission led by CNES, with ESA participation.

Within each region there are many selected fields that will be monitored in turn. The reason for the oppositely sited regions is that, because of the Earth's movement around the Sun, the sun's rays start to interfere with the observations after 150 days.

Nebula RCW38 in the constellation of sails seen in infrared by the VLT - Three - colour composite image of RCW38, obtained through three near - infrared filters. This is a region in the Milky Way at a distance of about 5,000 light years, where stars which have recently formed in clouds of gas and dust are still heavily obscured and cannot be observed in the visible part of the spectrum. Contrarily, as this image shows, they are very well seen at infrared wavelengths where the obscuration is substantially lower. The diffuse radiation is a mixture of starlight scattered by the dust and gas in the area, and atomic and molecular hydrogen line emission. RCW 38 is at a distance of ~ 1.7 kpc (~ 5500 light years) from us, near the famous Vela supernova remnant and the Gum nebul

Hubble's exquisite resolution allows astronomers to pinpoint 50 separate stars tightly packed in the nebula's core within a 10 light - year diameter - slightly more than twice the distance between earth and the nearest star to our sun.

This region, named in reference to the astronomer Walter Baade, allows astronomers to have a more degagee view of the center of our galaxy. The Baade window, (at the bottom right of the bright star close to the center of this image), is a region of the Milky Way, in the Sagittarius constellation, with relatively little interstellar dust along our line of sight. It is therefore really a unique 'window' through which the astronomers can observe the Milky Way galactic Bulge, only a few degrees from the galactic center. The 'line of sight' through this 'window' passes 1800 light year nearby the Milky Way heart. This region of the sky was named after German astronomer Walter Baade

Hidden in light visible by interstellar dust, this region rises in infrared light. Gas filaments appear in red; they emphasize the presence of aromatic polycyclic hydrocarbons (PAH); they are organic molecules composed of carbon atoms and hydrogen that could be the germs on which the first bricks of life appeared. Image obtained by the Spitzer space telescope in 2003. Hidden behind a shroud of dust in the constellation Cygnus is a stellar nursery called DR21, which is giving birth to some of the most massive stars in our galaxy. Visible light images reveal no trace of this interstellar cauldron because of heavy dust obscuration. This image from Nasa's Spitzer Space Telescope allow us to peek behind the cosmic veil and pinpoint one of the most massive natal stars yet seen in our Milky Way galaxy.

Nebula NGC 6726 - 27 - 29 in the Southern Crown - The Corona Australis nebula (NGC 6726 - 27 - 29) Image of R Coronae Australis region in the southern Milky Way, obtained with the Wide Field Imager (WFI) (camera) at the 2.2 - m MPG/ESO Telescope on La Silla (Chile). The sky field shown measures approx. 33.7 x 31.9 arcmin2 (about the diameter of the full moon). The R Coronae Australis complex of young stars and interstellar gas clouds is one of the nearest star - forming regions, at a distance of approx. 500 light - years from the Sun. It is seen in the southern constellation of that name (The “Southern Crown”). R Coronae Australis, the bright star from which the entire complex is named, is located at the center of the field and illuminates the reddish nebula around it. The bright star in the lower part, illuminating a somewhat bluer nebula, is known as TY Coronae Australis. The brightness of these two stars and several others in the same field is variable. They belong to the so - calle

The Lactee Way - Milky Way and Atacama Andes - The Lactee Way over the Atacama Desert. Visible on the horizon near the middle of the image the Chajnantor (5639m) and its platform or the ALMA radio telescope is currently under construction. Mosaic with 3 images placed 1 minute each. June 2008. The Milky Way is rising majestically above the Chilean Atacama Andes in the San Pedro de Atacama region. Most of the peaks visible in the landscape background have altitudes above 5000m and even 6000m for some of them. Almost in the middle of the image are the Chajnantor mountain (5639 m) and plateau (5300 m) where the ALMA radio telescope project is being built. Note that is image is a one-shot image (in fact a mosaique made of 3 one-shot images), there is no background/foreground composition made here, or composition of pictures made with different exposure times etc... instead, the author choose the date and time at which the picture was taken in order to have the landscape and observer lit up

Milky Way and Echinopsis Atacamensis - These cacti are Echinopsis Atacamensis between 6 and 8 metres high. In the background, the lactee track. San Pedro de Atacama Region, Chile. Single installation of 2 minutes. June 2008. The 3 cacti on the image are Echinopsis Atacamensis. They are between 6m and 8m in height for a diameter of around 70 cm and live at an altitude between 2600 and 3800m in the San Pedro de Atacama region, north of Chile. It is a protected specie that was used for too long as construction 'wood' and (still!) for handycraft. This image also shows, in the background, the Southern Hemisphere Milky Way, with the Southern Cross and Coal bag in the far top right corner, and the rich region of our Galactic Center, Scorpius and Sagittarius constellations just in the middle. It is a 2 minute one-shot image taken with a digital camera
