James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), Part 2/2 – Finding earth-like (extrasolar) planets. — Please subscribe to Science & Reason: • www.youtube.com • www.youtube.com • www.youtube.com • www.youtube.com — The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is a large, infrared-optimized space telescope, scheduled for launch in 2014. JWST will find the first galaxies that formed in the early Universe, connecting the Big Bang to our own Milky Way Galaxy. JWST will peer through dusty clouds to see stars forming planetary systems, connecting the Milky Way to our own Solar System. JWST’s instruments will be designed to work primarily in the infrared range of the electromagnetic spectrum, with some capability in the visible range. JWST will have a large mirror, 6.5 meters (21.3 feet) in diameter and a sunshield the size of a tennis court. Both the mirror and sunshade won’t fit onto the rocket fully open, so both will fold up and open once JWST is in outer space. JWST will reside in an orbit about 1.5 million km (1 million miles) from the Earth. • www.jwst.nasa.gov The Universe: Another Earth HD- www.youtube.com ‘Earths are common,’ NASA scientist says- www.thestar.com CNN: Galaxy May be Full of ‘Earths,’ Alien life – www.cnn.com Earth-like Planet Discoveries on the Horizon (8/1/2010)- www.digitaljournal.com Earth’s Twin Planet Will Be Found By The End Of The Year, leading Astronomer says (26/1/2010)- www.dailymail.co.uk Looking for Alien Earths?

Is There Life Beyond Earth?

logo

This is a short video I put together to highlight why many believe that life may just exist beyond our own world. It contains pictures of Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, the Milky Way, stars and the hubble deep field. This video may cause heated debate between some – just try to enjoy it. Please rate and comment – thanks
