Will the James Webb telescope see much further than the Hubble telescope

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 13-10-31] [Hit: ]
and has a scheduled launch date of 2018.The JWST will have a 21.3 foot mirror (6.5m) and have a very big sunshield as well. Neither the mirror nor sunshade will fit onto a rocket as they are, so both will fold up and open when the JWST is in space.......
And will it be launched into space in 2014 or 2015?

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is named after the NASA Administrator
who crafted the Apollo program, and has a scheduled launch date of 2018.

The JWST will have a 21.3 foot mirror (6.5m) and have a very big sunshield as well. Neither the mirror nor sunshade will fit onto a rocket as they are, so both will fold up and open when the JWST is in space.

Its orbital period will be 1 year and its distance from Earth will be 1 million miles.
The optic-and-mirror system on the JWST is going to far surpass anything that
has ever been sent into space that the public will be aware of, and have access to.

Its capabilities will allow it to seek much older and more distant light than ever before
thereby allowing a more full deciphering of the Universe at far more distant points
than has ever been seen or realized.

It is very safe to say that the JWST will not just be surpassing the Hubble --
it will be totally superseding it.

It will see a little further, but not much. Not because of its physical characteristics, but because the light from the furthest galaxies hasn't travelled here yet. The most it will be able to see is probably less than 14 billion light years. A lot of stuff fits into that space though! And there's no telling when it will launch, especially with all of the government shutdowns and stuff that has been going on.

Not much but yes.. because unlike Hubble it is specifically for the infer red..It's currently losing it's apple because as like the Kepler they talked about finding a second earth and found everything but because for some reason they wont build a scope big enough... Can you tell Im tired of being built up just to be let down
Example..
Current Mars rover Curiosity...Confirmed there use to be water on mars.......15 billion....15 billion for that so far after over a year on the planet....15billion...@#$%$ stuiped.
