The James Webb Space Telescope has been sending back extraordinary images of newborn stars, distant planets and some of the earliest galaxies ever seen. So, this week, we’re blasting open the Squiz Kids Vault and revisiting our Shortcut to the telescope that some people call the Just Wonderful Space Telescope.
Join Amanda and Bryce as they discover HOW the JWST works, WHAT its first spectacular images revealed, and WHY scientists believe studying distant galaxies and planets could help us better understand the universe, and our own little corner of it.
