  • Four Possible Space Telescopes after Webb

    From Quadibloc@21:1/5 to All on Fri Dec 17 10:56:34 2021
    I found the following video on YouTube

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8KlX2OFg-s

    which discusses four space telescope designs being examined by NASA:

    LUVOIR, similar to the Webb, but larger, and for visible light; an advanced X-Ray telescope; a telescope specifically designed to study exoplanets; and a far infrared telescope intended as a successor to the Webb.
