So…you’ve heard that the Webb telescope will be orbiting Lagrange point 2. But what even is that? Lagrange points refer to locations where the gravitational forces of 2 massive objects — such as the Sun and Earth — are in equilibrium. Webb will be located more specifically at Sun-Earth Lagrange point 2, or L2 for short. 1. Why send Webb to orbit L2? 😎 Shade: The Sun, Earth (and Moon) are always on one side. At L2, Webb’s sunshield can always face all of these heat & light sources to protect Web

Asteroid watch! 👀 Did you know that Webb can observe some of the smallest objects in our solar system, as well as the biggest? Though currently too distant to see from Earth, Webb was able to collect one more observation of asteroid 2024 YR4 before its orbit around the Sun took it out of view. Webb was able to help refine, by nearly 20%, our knowledge of the asteroid’s orbit, and where it will be on December 22, 2032. When it was first discovered, it had a small chance of impacting Earth.
