dr. -- james webb space telescope. dr. meredith mcgregor is a professor at the university of boulder. meredith: the james webb space telescope is going to evolution as many different areas of science. when we go to the edge of universe and the edge of time, one of the objects of the telescope is to look back at the early history of the universe. we want to see galaxies as they were first born early in the universe. the reason that james webb can do this is because -- there is actually a really tiny piece of what we call the electromagnetic spectrum. james webb is looking at the imprint wish -- which is just other bit longer. our bodies give off heat. everything in the universe gives off heat. as it turns out, the universe started with the big bang. it grew really quickly. you can think of the universe essentially like a loaf of raisin bread. you can put it in the oven and it starts to rise. the bread actually starts to stretch apart. they are growing apart from each other. if you think as the universe as the bread, the spa

hubble�*s successor is nasa's james webb telescope.the £7.5 billion spacecraft will go beyond earth's orbit — 930,000 miles into deep space. once in space, it unfurls its sunshield and deploys its giant mirror and instruments. the space telescope is much more powerful than hubble. it'll be able to analyse the atmospheres of worlds orbiting distant stars to see if there are signs of life. it'll also be able to witness the birth of the very first stars. this is a simulation of that critical moment. the purple areas are clouds of hydrogen gas becoming ever denser until they form stars, blazing like fireworks. james webb is expected to capture images of this really happening. i'm so excited! why are you so excited? isn't that just fantastic that as humanity, a tiny little civilisation on planet earth, that we can create a telescope that we can send up into space and peer back to the universe as it was just a couple of hundred million years after the big bang? and some incredible views from space were obtained from these aerials planted in

we have this successor, james webb. it is bigger, much, much bigger.ment, just a couple of hundred million years after the big bang, when the very first stars switch on. there was darkness and then the stars ignite. why is that important? when the big bang happened, we only had three chemical elements. hydrogen, helium and lithium. everything else, all of the other chemical elements had to be forged in the nuclear reactions in stars. the carbon that makes up your body, the phosphorus in your dna, the nitrogen in earth's atmosphere, the silicon in the rocks, the silicon in the fibre—optic cables that are bringing the pictures to me here in cambridge, to you in london, all of that chemistry had to be made in those first stars and in their descendants. so it is a really key moment in our story, in the story of the cosmos. it is the formation of all lightness and we want to see it. and james webb is going to show it to us. now it's time for a look at the weather with lousie lear. good evening. it was a pretty miserable start to our weekend. but the weather

and james webb is going to show it to us. now it's time for a look at the weather with lousie lear.ood evening. it was a pretty miserable start to our weekend. but the weather story did improve as we went through the day. there will continue to be a few showers into the evening and overnight in the far north and west. but as skies continue to clear, well, temperatures will fall away and we could see some icy stretches with a few showers lingering here and there. showers most chiefly to the far north and west and with any elevation they will be wintry as well. so it's going to be a chilly start to our sunday morning for many of us. but it will be a sunny one. we will keep some sunshine throughout much of the day into sheltered eastern areas, central and southern england. a few scattered showers moving through western scotland, maybe across the peaks and pennines and maybe some rain gathering down to the south—west by the end of the day. blustery winds to begin with. slowly easing as the afternoon continues. temperatures, well, ranging generally between five to eight celsius. a little

and there is the view from the upper stage camera on the aryan five, looking at the james webb spacemoves gently away. profits launch vehicle. nasa's james webb space telescope fired its rocket thrusters today, one month after launching on a quest to behold the dawn of the universe. the maneuver put the $10 billion observatory into orbit around the sun. right at the spot where the gravitational forces of the sun and earth balance. coming up in sports. could there be a personal rivalry growing between the head coaches of the rams and 49ers? we'll hear from 49ers coach kyle shanahan about that coming up next and then on the 11 o'clock news, a man shot and killed at a strip mall in antioch. it is the first homicide there in that city of the new year. we are hearing from the victim's family new year, new start. and now comcast business is making it easy to get going with the ready. set. save. sale. get started with fast and reliable internet and voice for $64.99 a month with a 2-year price guarantee. it's easy... with flexible installation and backing from an expert team, 24/7. and for e

. >>> well, after $10 billion and a 1 million-mile journey the james webb space telescope has arrivedestination now nasa's next trick, getting it to open its eye. >>> and tonight baseball's hall of fame just inducted one, one player while potentially shutting the door on some of sports' biggest names. ses. all these other things too. it can all add up. kesimpta is a once-monthly at-home injection... that may help you put these rms challenges in their place. kesimpta was proven superior at reducing the rate of relapses, active lesions, and slowing disability progression vs aubagio. don't take kesimpta if you have hepatitis b, and tell your doctor if you have had it, as it could come back. kesimpta can cause serious side effects, including infections. while no cases of pml were reported in rms clinical trials, it could happen. tell your doctor if you had or plan to have vaccines, or if you are or plan to become pregnant. kesimpta may cause a decrease in some types of antibodies. the most common side effects are upper respiratory tract infection, headache, and injection reactions. ready

. >>> launched from south america just two weeks ago, the james webb space telescope has one of the largest mirrors that nasa has ever built. it had trouble unfolding at first. today, it asked ended more than 20 feet. the engineers develop the infrared camera that will help to take pictures, and help the scientists learn about the evolution of the universe. >>> back to earth, we are here for a look at the forecast. >>> we will keep our focus closer to home. the main concern will be patchy fog tomorrow morning. that says a lot. there is a lot going on here. the storm track is giving us a break. sunday morning, you will have fog to deal with if you are in the inland valleys. this is the live view. we are looking out north over the golden gate bridge. one location on here dipped into the 40s. that is livermore at 49. that is a good indication that we will get cold again overnight thomas ashley if you are in the inland valleys. these are clear skies overhead. when we get into clear skies, temperatures drop in the inland valleys. we were in the upper 30s this morning for places like santa rosa,

for nasa the james webb space telescope unfolded its giant gold mirror the mirrors 18 gold coated segmentsnfold and lock together in perfect sequence. between the fact that we had large and deterministic deployments like the sun shield and we had large precision deployments like in the ote like in the telescope. this has been a you know, arguably the most challenging deployment program ever done by nasa. the spacecraft will spend the next two weeks traveling about a million miles from earth a million miles scientists are hoping for images of space like we've never seen it before. want to make sure that the first images that the world sees that the humanity sees from this telescope are due justice to this 10 billion dollar telescope and are not those you know, hey look a star. the telescope will investigate planets outside of our solar system. we could see some of the first images this summer. wow. all right, if you aren't ready to say goodbye to the holidays yet. you do have one more day to check out a few holiday events. today is the last day of blinkies illuminated holiday at lake cunnin
