the other awesome thing about the james webb space telescope, is that it looks into the infrared. so with the hubble space telescope, we were only looking at visible light. with the james webb space telescopes, we will be able to see infrared light. a good analogy is thinking about trying to look at a big forest through a crack in a gait. you know, we were kind of seeing blurry images and trying to make out what was going on. with james webb we will be able to really open the gate for the first time. >> natalie you also be working with the web telescope project. and that capability will give us the chance to look back in time almost to the beginning of the universe. what are we hoping to learn? >> my goodness, i have a lot of interest on what we will learn about the planets themselves, their climates, and how their atmospheres transfer and implications to life. but webb, but since it has a large collecting area, his he deep in the universe. we can reach back to the first 200 million years after the big bang. we will be able to see phenomenon like the supernova of the very first sta

generation of inquiry by a brain telescopes into space which affords amazing unique platforms for access to questions that we asked about what went on in the early universe the james webb space telescope is exquisitely tuned to observe for the formation of galaxies right when the universe began the hubble telescope can't see that far back in time the james webb telescope can so there is there are pieces of this puzzle that we are assembling by the way we don't have a picture of the fully assembled puzzle which could we don't know what the thing is that we're we don't know that's what it means to be on the frontier i mean i always ask you this question a journalist always a scientist this question but i suppose most efficiently now we've seen dead people in texas freezing what is the boy of spending money on a telescope the gumby repair being sent off like that let alone what's happening on mars in the freezing cold martian surface when there are people in your country freezing to death literally in texas that on the 40000000 on food stamps yes so so it's one thing you could compare that way i don't have a problem with that and i have a i want to offer a reply or respon

administration canceled the xo mars partnership with europe because of cost overruns with the james webb space telescope. that pushed europe to partner up with russia for that mission. as mars exploration becomes increasingly international, congress and the administration will have to carefully weigh the pros and cons of partnerships and the impact of those partnerships on technology transfer and theft, national security, human rights and communist party legitimacy. it is a privilege to partner with the world leader aspiration and they might have more to gain with partnering with us than we do with them. i look forward to many more exciting discoveries as we embark on a future mission to mars. nasa's planetary science program's vast portfolio of missions from large, medium and small sizes and explores all of our solar system, including the outer planets, asteroids and, hopefully, even a return to venus in the future. i also look very much forward to understanding how big-ticket items like the mars sample return mission, europa mig, under the astronomy division and how it will impact the agency and other

this year we will see a launch of the james webb telescope a 9 billion-dollar instrument on top of the marianne rockets. situated at the equator with the european space agency launched center in french guiana. you will see that telescope replacing the hubble that has already opened up so many new things to us in the universe. it will look back in time almost to the beginning of the source of light. millions and billions of light-years away. it is an exciting time perhaps early next year, you will see the largest rocket ever, most powerful launched that would be the workforce on the program is going back to the moon which was a multi- administration project. this is not one administration it's like building an aircraft carrier. it will take you years down the road and it has to be continued regardless of who was in the majority or and the presidency and we see this. we will see the fulfillment. if you ask me what is my vision for the future of nasa it is to continue for us to explore the heavens and with machines. there is a lot of excitement. corollary to that is look at what in developing machines can take humans and robots out to explore look at wh

year we're going to see it in the launch of the james webb telescope, a $9 billion instrument on top of a rocket situated at the equator at the european space agency's launch center. you're going to see that telescope replacing the hubbell that is already opened up so many new things to us in the universe and it's going to look back in time almost to the beginning of the source of life, millions and millions and billions of light years away. it's an exciting time. and at the end of the year, perhaps early next year, you're going to see the largest rocket ever, most powerful, launched that is going to be the workhorse on the program of going back to the moon and then onto mars, which was a multi-administration project. these projects are not one administration. they're many. it's like building an aircraft carrier, you start it and it'll take you years down the road. it and has to be continued regardless of who's in the majority, regardless of who's in the presidency. and so too are we seeing this. we'll see the fulfillment of these programs. so if you ask me, what is my vision for the future of nasa, it is to continue for us to explore the h
