The world's largest and most powerful space telescope launched on a mission to investigate the universe in search of early stars, galaxies, and indications of life.
The name of this space telescope is 'James Webb Space Telescope'.
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope was launched by the European rocket Ariane from the French Guiana Space Center on the northeastern coast of South America.
This observatory, which will cost around $10 billion to build, will travel 1.6 million kilometres, or four times the distance between Earth and the Moon, to reach its destination.
It will take one month to get there, and its infrared eyes will be ready to explore the universe in the following five months.
