Here is a nice little article about the Webb telescope from one of my engineering magazines.

Way cool. I just hope they do not screw up the mirror (or anything else) as they did with Hubble. No cavalry to ride over the hill, with the shuttle retired, and no replacement in sight. :(

Oh, they may screw something up, but I have a feeling the mirror won;t be the thing. Not this time anyway.

They may just cancell it altogether. It's supposed to be at a Lagrange point. Out of reach of any manned mission we are cappable of for a while.

Oh why should my congressman spend time voting for a telescope, when he COULD be spending his time cancelling aid programs for the less fortunate and supporting tax relief for folks with six-figure incomes?
