The difference between the Euclid mission and the JWST

The full-colour photos offer the clearest glimpse yet of the cosmos, as the telescope continues its mission to unlock the mysteries of the furthest reaches of space known as the "dark universe".

Update March 25th 2025

• First data sent back

Future space telescopes could be made from thin membranes, unrolled in space to enormous size

Interesting article on the future of space telescopes so the idea seems interesting as it allows deployment of large telescopes in space quickly.

The JWST is 6.5 meters, the ELT is 39 meters (ground based) as the JWST is foldable then the technology is already there.

This could offer some real opportunity to make strides forward, as we have seen with the JWST. Larger telescopes allow for the collection of more light, I would guess that telescopes can be built to collect different light e.g. UV, Visible and IR.

Should be good.

NASA's Next Big Thing: The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope

Date: Tue 3 Sep 2024 Location: Virtual Time: 8:00 PM – 9:30 PM EDT

**Speaker: **Ori Fox (Space Telescope Science Institute)

More information can be found here

• Recorded lecture on Youtube

NASA's upcoming Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope (Roman) is readying for launch in late 2026. Roman will be able to survey the sky 1,000 times faster than Hubble. It will collect near-infrared imaging and spectroscopic data with Hubble-quality resolution and sensitivity over fields of view 200 times greater than the Hubble's. Roman's data will enrich all areas of astrophysics by enabling studies of nearly every class of astronomical object, phenomenon, and environment across the observable universe. Dr. Fox will discuss the details of the Roman mission, with a focus on its scientific goals. These exciting studies include the discovery of thousands of new planets and pinpointing the source of a mysterious force called Dark Energy that permeates our Universe.

I will try and share some thoughts on my Matrix Science Room

Latest image from the James Webb Telescope is the first image of a distant world taken by the telescope. The first of many that will hopefully be taken over the coming years.

The first set of images from the JWST were really impressive. Hopefully we will get more shortly. So check the website on a regular basis for updates. At the next STEM Group meeting, we are aiming to have a JWST theme, with a recording of the August Space Telescope Science Institute lecture.

Latest update from the James Webb Space Telescope. The first images will be sent tomorrow, 12/7/2022. The team are super excited about this, now the science can start.

President Biden will reveal first image at 21:00 on 11/July/2022

Lets discuss more at the next Paignton Library STEM group meeting.

I have added a link to a discourse discussion [3] Along with a link to my Tuxiversity forum to discuss Astronomy / Science related courses. [4].

The JWST mission could be a good topic at the Paignton Library STEM group [5] on 9th April.
