OUR NASA revealed that 12 of the 17 tool modes James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) approved for use. The newest way to “get started” is spectroscopy of unique objects from space. NIRISS, an acronym for Near Infrared Spectrometer. July 12 at American space agency will show the first results of catches JWST.

NIRISS is a complicated name, clear function

the name of this tool from James Webb may be difficult to translate, but the function of your newly approved regime This is pretty easy to explain. O Mode it will be used to observe the atmosphere of exoplanets – before, during and after they “eclipse” the star they orbit. Data received NIRISS then a team on the ground analyzes them and determines if the planet has an atmosphere, and if so, what it is made of.

O NIRISS was made Canadian Space Agency (KSA abbreviation in English), one of the space agencies involved in the project James Webb Space Telescope other organ – European Space Agency (ESA). OUR ESA made tool NIRSpets and contributed to the production MIRI together with NASA and the Japan Space Agency. already NIRKam was made NASA.

James Webb: years from production to release

project James Webb telescope was developed National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in collaboration with European and Canadian space agencies. It was originally scheduled to launch in 2007. But some problems delayed the launch of the model, one of them was the high cost of the James Webb telescope, which grew more and more and, back in 2005, forced Engineers to rethink the original design.

In 2016, the telescope was declared ready, but its project was again put on hold due to construction difficulties and remained so until 2019, when it was finally assembled. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there have been more delays until NASA finally scheduled for release on December 18, 2021.

With it, researchers will be able to observe even more things from space, being able to see some of the oldest galaxies in the universe and other celestial bodies such as black holes.
