An infrared telescope detects celestial bodies using infrared light. It allows scientists to measure temperatures of planets, stars, and dust, and see past dust clouds. Infrared telescopes function using components like helium, solar shields, and detectors. They have advantages like viewing farther than visible light and penetrating dust clouds, but use large amounts of helium and require detectors that take up space. Examples given are the Spitzer and Hubble telescopes.
The James Webb Space Telescope is NASA's next flagship mission. Webb will revolutionize astronomy in the infrared like the Hubble Space Telescope has done for the visible portion of the spectrum over the last 22 years. Webb will reveal the story of the formation of the first starts and galaxies, investigate the processes of planet formation, and trace the origins of life.
James Webb Space Telescope- in search of our originKshitij Bane
A presentation about The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) which will be launched in 2019. The presentation covers basic information about the telescope, its primary mirror, its orbit & the Sunshield. It also explains why the telescope will work in infrared region of electromagnetic spectrum and how it truly is an Engineering marvel.

Here are the 5 Most Powerful Telescopes; 1 -Keck Observatory, began science operations in 1993 2 -Hubble Space Telescope, launched in 1990 3 -Spitzer Space Telescope, launched in 2003 4 -Large Binocular Telescope, first light in October 2005 5 -Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope, launched in 2008
2. WHAT TYPE OF TELESCOPE YOU ARE
RESEARCHING
Infrared light is one of several types of radiation
present in the electromagnetic spectrum.
INFRARED TELESCOPE.
KELSON
3. HOW IT WORKS
• An infrared telescope is a telescope that uses
infrared light to detect celestial bodies.
ELLIE
4. WHY WE USE IT
Scientist use this telescope to measure the
different temperatures of planets, stars, and dust in
the galaxy. This telescope also lets scientists be
able to see past the proto star and where the
actual star is.
ELLIE
5. WHAT IT NEEDS TO FUNCTION
Helium.
Solar panel shield.
Helium tanks.
Aperture doors and photon shutters.
Outer shell.
Ejectable cover.
Barrel Baffle.
Focal Surface.
Slosh Baffle.
And many more that I don’t want to put on because there is like 100,000,000
6. PRO’S AND CON’S FOR INFRARED TELESCOPE
Pros:
• can view farther than the eye.
• the image is very very clear from far away.
• Infrared waves penetrate dust clouds in space, allowing us to see areas that emit no light.
• Cons:
• Uses tons of helium and helium is running out really fast. Cannot repair if it is space unless
they send a shuttle.
• They need huge detectors that take up tons of space.
• dry mountains, because there can’t be any water vapor to screw up the signal, and they have to
be put high up, because they have to be able to see the stars and planets.

7. EXAMPLES FOR INFRARED TELESCOPES
• The Spitzer telescope: The Spitzer telescope is NASA’s
finial space based telescope and both the Humble
telescope and the Spitzer are both included in the space
program. It is also made to detect infrared radiation.
Launch date is 25 August 2003.
• The Hubble Telescope: Launched in 1990 and is one of
the longest lasting science projects or missions. It helped
determine the age of the universe the identity of the
quasars and dark energy.
