Great episode! Feinberg's expertise and technical info about the JWST is absolutely fascinating! This channel is much more than the best science reporting. It's an oasis of calm and intelligence. Fraser and his guests represent the best part of KZbin- the part that values our collective desire to know more about our world, our universe and our better place in it.

I love these engineering oriented interviews Fraser. While the science the telescope is doing is amazing, I would argue (at least from an engineer's viewpoint) that how the telescope came together and operates is much cooler. Pun intended. It's like you mentioned in the video, we are coming up against the limits of physics more than the limits of engineering. I think that really says it all as to what an accomplishment this telescope really is. Thank you and Lee for the interview!

Question: Can you talk about the challenges of capturing light from exoplanets and really dim stars? Like, I understand that sometimes we're talking about capturing a handful of photons per hour, which makes the function and design of these machines absolutely mind-blowing! Can you also talk about the workflow of how the data is stored onboard, how it's processed (is it compressed?) and the schedule and planning that goes to send the information back to Earth (the software - what options are there?, the infrastructure, how it's stored back on Earth before processing, etc). Something you hardly hear about! Thanks Fraser!

38:00 ok im still having trouble wrapping my head around why it’s better to look one direction. am I correct that you get hit about the same amount looking any direction but you get hit harder when looking forward in the orbit? If so why? My intuition is that fast objects coming from the outer solar system would hit the trailing side more.
@Vermiliontea

The Earth, Moon and L2, together, orbits the Sun with a speed of 29,780 m/s ( = 66,616 Mph or 107,208 km/h ). This will be vector added to the speed of the meteorite. Meteorites which do not have a high enough speed in the direction that the Earth travels, will not hit at all from the behind. Let's consider a meteorite that will, weighing 0.002 g, that has a speed of 40,000 m/s relative the Sun, as it crosses the path of Earth. If it hits from behind, the impact energy will be ½ * 0.000002 * 10,220^2 = 104 J. If it hits the front, the impact energy will be ½ * 0.000002 * 69,780^2 = 4,869 J. So by facing backwards, the idea is of course that the backing Beryllium will take most of the damage and that the mirror surface will be less damaged or deformed.

I guess it depends if the micrometeoroids tend to orbit the sun in the same direction and speed as the planets, but I figure the origin of these things is so diverse that their trajectories are just as diverse. Every collision and impact that happens in the solar system will spray these things in every direction, and there's probably a non-negligible amount that have orbits from the oort cloud or interstellar space as well. So JWST will definitely get hit harder in the direction it's cruising, matching the Earth's orbit and a slightly higher speed. Someone who actually understands orbital mechanics could say whether the older micrometeors will begin to follow the orbits of the planets over time, but that would take a while. If they came from a high energy collision, their initial speeds could easily be extremely high compared to what we're used to seeing with big asteroids. After reading about this more, it seems like the gravity from planets would indeed lead the micros to align with their orbits when they've been around for long enough. On the other hand, I didn't consider the radiation pressure from the sun or the solar wind, which would have a stronger effect the smaller the object is. this would increase the eccentricity of the orbits, and possibly their inclination as well.

This is a major accomplishment for the US, the EU, and other Western partners. Would a political enemy and competitor on the world stage see JWST as the perfect target to strike out against our politics, our tech, our system & science, or just to make a statement? If so, what should we be doing about this now?

I've spent quite a good deal of time thinking about space interferometers and see one significant difficulty that isn't discussed here; namely, that although the "theoretical" angular resolving power of an interferometer is a merely a function of the maximum widths of the separations among the various telescopes providing the data to be "interfered," the ratio of the total area of the individual telescopes utilized divided by the total area of a circular approximation of the "theoretical" interferometer as a whole is generally very small. This means that in general it is not possible to produce anything like a high-resolution image of the object at all, at least from that data alone. This is why most radio telescope arrays, like the old VLA, not only do not have individual telescopes located at distances, say, hundreds or thousands of times greater than the apertures of the telescopes. It is also why most such arrays have their telescopes on railroad tracks, or something equivalent, in order to put them into configurations which can concentrate them greatly near one central location, or spread them out so that they serve to form ever larger theoretical interferometer apertures. When the fringes from several different such separations are assembled, and "deconvolved" by a computer, one can indeed build up a -- usually rather moth-eaten appearing -- "image" of the object being observed. [That is actually rather amazing itself in some ways!] Being able to change the separations and and relative locations of the constituent telescopes making up such an interferometer in SPACE, however, it at least seems to me, will be very tricky for all but the simplest configurations of, say 2 to 4 telescope components. Thus a space-based interferometer built as a kind of "eye in the sky" variant of the VLA would need to be able to keep all their components coherently aligned with respect to one another to an accurate precision of nanometers [or perhaps perhaps even picometers?] over separation distances of several kilometers. And that difficulty will only be compounded by needing to frequently reconfigure the entire array, not only for a usable image of each object observed, but also, a fortiori, to move the entire system in order to observe the next object on the list. Maybe these problems are not as difficult to solve as my hardly very well honed "intuitions" lead me to believe, but that is hardly obvious to me.

They could save--Hundreds of millions of $$ of sending a spacecraft to fly thru it as they intend to do so, versus having the JWST just do a top quality image of it first hand from space. I'm missing something here?? Or they plan to image them in near future?

The PARTICLE TRAIN! Previously I suggested that eternal photons made electron positron pairs, (as well as all standard model particles). Here's how. Start with a PARTICLE TRAIN, each time you add an electron or positron car to the train, you get a new particle. The only rule is the cars have to alternate from electron to positron. Think of a wave with trough always alternating with crest. Photons as electron positron pairs could make the main parts of an atom in the brief time after the Big Bang under those extreme and never repeated conditions. Charges are the cars on our particle train. Positive positron (+), Negative electron (-). Positron (+) Electron (-) Photon (+) (-) Proton (+) (-) (+) Anti Proton (-) (+) (-) Neutron (+) (-) (+) (-) Anti Neutron (-) (+) (-)(+) . The PROTONS and NEUTRONS are made from ELECTRONS and POSITRONS! When this production of particles was over, most anti particles with charge; positrons, and anti protons, didn't exist on their own. They were LOCKED INTO PROTONS OR NEUTRONS. That way conservation of charge was maintained. That also explains the MISSING ANTI MATTER PROBLEM! This from Wikipedia article Matter Creation: It is possible to create all fundamental particles in the standard model, including quarks, leptons and bosons using photons of varying energies above some minimum threshold, whether directly (by pair production), or by decay of the intermediate particle (such as a W− boson decaying to form an electron and an electron-antineutrino).

Fraser, why have we not been able to find any information on which side of Earth was in the direct line of fire at the time of the Oct 9, 2022 gamma ray burst? Or, is it that GRBs are so powerful that the effects are global and that it didn’t matter?

how cheap would be to build another jwst copy, since its already developed? isnt there a budget case for making 2x of a developed device? or even more?

Good point - now that we know it works the risks are less.

launching something as valuable as jwst on a rocket is madness. modular assemble in space is definitely the way to go.

How much redundancy is built into Webb. Should that be a bigger priority in future satellites. Also robotic systems and replicable parts. Considering the location and cost of Webb.

There must be a few ground based telescopes needing to be upgraded. Perhaps this would be the place to start.

virtual aperture resolution in all its glory, what you dont get is light gathering power. to what extent will that limit what you can see with such a quantum networked telescope

If we can do interferometry with Radio Telescopes why not use the same technology with optical since it is all EM radiation just different parts of the sepctrum?

Just though about this and of course we see optical rangess as photons and radio range as waves 😞

Why does the sun shield and the telescope have to be the same satellite? Can you fly a 'squadron' of satellites or does that need too much fuel use? Could you simple have simpler shields on a separate unbrella craft that blocks the sun so that you can run the craft with the instrument in the umbra of the umbrella? I understand that you need your radiator on the instrument if you expect to radiate the heat into deep space, but that is different from the sun shield. Would a 'moon shield' and an Earth shield also be useful to block the light and heat of these nearby bodies?

I'm confused, are you talking about the sunshield that JWST uses to cool down its instruments? Or a starshield to help you see exoplanets. For the starshield, that needs to be a separate satellite that flies 10,000 km away from the observatory.

@@frasercain I was thinking about the JWST sunshield. It seems easy to make a large shield, but building that into the orgami magic of a single satellite adds complexity. If you can literally decouple the two functions, you also have modularity in that if the shield was to malfuction, you can at least imagine jettisoning it to be replaced.
