The first full-color images from NASA's newest telescope will be dropped soon.
Since it was launched in 1990, the Hubble Space Telescope has been NASA's most powerful space observatory. The first 400 million years after the Big bang, there was a gap in the historical record of our universe, which is expected to be filled with the help of the JWST.
It took more than two decades and $10 billion for the observatory to be built and launched.
NASA is going to show the world what it can do with its new eye in the sky. The time is at 5 pm. The first full-color image from JWST will be revealed by the president.
The announcement will be broadcast from the White House. There is an hour and a half later. The video can be watched in the embedded version.
There will be more images on Tuesday. NASA plans to release a bunch of full-color images from the telescope at 10:30 a.m. on Thursday. The show is also on NASA TV.
The images from the new telescope will be discussed by NASA and the European Space Agency at noon on Tuesday.
