Stellar Packaging: The James Webb Space Telescope's Journey
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) represents one of humanity's most complex astronomical instruments ever built. Before it could begin its mission to observe distant galaxies, it had to survive the harsh conditions of launch and the vacuum of space. This required extraordinary product packaging and design considerations unlike any consumer product. Test your knowledge about how this $10 billion observatory was protected during its journey to space!
