That was a biggie, getting the shield up, without that NOTHING else works, might as well throw up a Walmart 100 dollar telescope....
I wish I had enough bucks to launch my own telescope, say only half the size of Hubble, even that would give some 1/10 arc second res and I would be the one doing the looking🙂
Hub clocks in at about 1/20th arc second res, 1 arc second parses a circle into 1,296,000 parts so 20 times that for Hub, parses a circle into near 26 MILLION bits, and Webb will do 14 times that I think which parses a circle into 600 Million bits, quite an improvement if and when it starts producing useable data.
So if you visualize a circle, then cut it into finer and finer bits, starting with 1 million or so, close to one arc second of res, to 600 million bits around a circle which means it would spot stuff 600 times smaller than a scope with 1 arc second res.
