NASA's James Webb Space Telescope is ready for shipment to launch site and successfully completes final testing.
The game changing technology and the most awaited telescope of NASA James Webb Space Telescope has completed its final test successfully. The space agency of United States has said: Webb's long-spanning comprehensive testing regimen at facilities of Northrop Grumman is completed by engineering team.
The telescope will be completed in the month of September and it is now being prepared for the shipment to its launch site, NASA said in a statement.
The space agency of US pushed back the target recently for the launch of James Webb Space Telescope, promoting as its next great space observatory, to October.
James Webb Space Telescope was planned to launch in March 2021 earlier. The launch has been postponed as an impact from Covid-19 Pandemic and because of technical issues too.
Gregory L Robinson, James Webb space Telescope's program director at headquarters of NASA in Washington said "NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has reached a major turning point on its path toward launch with the completion of final observatory integration and testing," in the statement.
"We have a tremendously dedicated workforce who brought us to the finish line, and we are very excited to see that Webb is ready for launch and will soon be on that science journey," he added.
In Baltimore, at the Space Telescope Science Institute(STScI), a team working in Webb's Mission Operations Centre (MOC) will continue to check and recheck the complex communications network that it will use in space.
Recently this network showed that it is capable of sending command seamlessly to the spacecraft. Live launch rehearsals are in progress under the Webb's Mission Operations Centre (MOC) with the obvious purpose of preparing for the launch and beyond.
The James Webb Space Telescope is an international mission led by NASA, a space agency of US. This Telescope is an amazing feat of human Innovation. In this mission or program European Space Agency (ESA) and Canadian Space Agency are the partners of NASA.
From more tha. 14 counties and and 29 states, in nine different time zones, thousands of scientists, engineers and other professionals contributed their efforts in the mission.
James Webb Space Telescope will be launch from French Guiana on the northeastern cost of South America aboard the ESA's Ariane 5 launch vehicle.
NASA says that the James Webb Space Telescope is the World's most powerful and complex space telescope ever built.
James Webb Space Telescope is designed to help in solving the unsolved mysteries of Solar System and of universe.
