A History of Space Telescopes | Lockheed Martin

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is the largest, most powerful space telescope ever built, and it will reveal what our universe looked like some 13.5 billion years ago. It just released its first science images, many of which were taken by NIRCam—the most precise and sensitive infrared camera ever built by Lockheed Martin.

Lockheed Martin has a long history of designing and building telescopes, from Hubble, to Spitzer and JWST.
