The James Webb Space Telescope Mission

open access: yesPublications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2023
Abstract Twenty-six years ago a small committee report, building on earlier studies, expounded a compelling and poetic vision for the future of astronomy, calling for an infrared-optimized space telescope with an aperture of at least 4 m.

The James Webb Space Telescope [PDF]

open access: yesSpace Science Reviews, 2006
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is a large (6.6m), cold (50K), infrared-optimized space observatory that will be launched early in the next decade. The observatory will have four instruments: a near-infrared camera, a near-infrared multi-object spectrograph, and a tunable filter imager will cover the wavelength range, 0.6 to 5.0 microns, while ...

Titan Science with the James Webb Space Telescope [PDF]

open access: yesPublications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2016
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), scheduled for launch in 2018, is the successor to the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) but with a significantly larger aperture (6.5 m) and advanced instrumentation focusing on infrared science (0.6-28.0 $μ$m ). In this paper we examine the potential for scientific investigation of Titan using JWST, primarily with ...

Science with the James Webb space telescope [PDF]

open access: yesSPIE Proceedings, 2006
The science objectives of the James Webb Space Telescope fall into four themes. The End of the Dark Ages: First Light and Reionization theme seeks to identify the first luminous sources to form and to determine the ionization history of the universe. The Assembly of Galaxies theme seeks to determine how galaxies and the dark matter, gas, stars, metals,
