I know there was some controversy about webb due to its ten billion price tag as some scientists thought the money could have been better spent on a variety of smaller but useful projects. Also there were issues with the lengthy time it took to design and build it and fears of a launch disaster that could end it all but looks it was one big gamble with results better than anyone dreamed of.âđđ

My father helped build the JWT in the early 2000âs working at Northrop Grumman, in El Segundo, CA. He retired in 2011 after working there for 37 years.
His highlighted resume:
B-2 Stealth Bomber
International Space Station
James Webb Telescope
Background:
Grew up in a small ranch in Mexico. Grew up eating beans and corn tortillas EVERYDAY, no other choice. He started working at the age of 4 taking care of cows, then 7 he started growing corn crops, teenager started building stone/boulder fences. Migrated to America at the age of 16 with only $30. Started working at Northrop in the early 1970âs as a sweeper. Then moved up to eventually create tools for Northrop to build aerospace technology and worked on hundreds of aerospace and military.
Mexican migrants are a jewel to Americaâs advancements DONâT HATE CONGRADULATE!

I was on pins and needles watching this telescope launch, set up and start sending its first images. I wanted this to be a success so much even though i had nothing to do with building or designing it. I love science and i wanted so much to have everyone's hard work pay off and they all deserved the success they all earned. From my heart to yours, thank you, you are a rockstar and we cant wait to hear what you discover. â¤

I consider myself a smart woman, I have a masters in education and have almost a whole 4 year health degree under my belt.... I don't know why I watch these videos - I understand about half the words, and even fewer concepts. I never feel more stupid than when trying to get a grasp on physics.
The people who do get it, and the ones who are advancing it? Mind blowing!! Keep it up!! â¤

A disturbingly large amount of people in the comments donât seem to understand that all statements made about the theories of the universe include the caveat - âGiven the information we had at the time.â as if theories arenât meant to be tested and broken when new information comes in to play, and that such things are celebrated rather than scorned.

I'm one of the thousands that spent years designing and building this amazing telescope. Even we are amazed at what our work has produced!
