@JLCDhome2018 @NASAWebb What is special about this orbit is that it lets the telescope stay in line with the Earth as it moves around the Sun. This allows the satellite's large sunshield to protect the telescope from the light and heat of the Sun and Earth (and Moon): https://t.co/rww0hBX9Ej — PolitiTweet.org

@migzcuad @NASAWebb It depends on how far away those planets are! For example, the Trappist system is only 39.4 light years away, so we would be seeing the light that left it 39+ years ago. That doesn't mean we could travel there easily or quickly. (1/2) — PolitiTweet.org
