This Saturday (Dec. 25), the James Webb Space Telescope
<https://www.space.com/21925-james-webb-space-telescope-jwst.html> will
blast off from Earth on a 1-million-mile (1.5 million kilometers) journey
to its ultimate destination, where it will make groundbreaking new
observations of the early universe. But with such ambitious science goals,
more than 25 years of work and $10 billion spent, a lot is riding on the
success of this telescope.
