I’ve heard they’ve been building it for years

@Ard It will provide a really good opportunity for infra red astronomy, as this telescope will work more in the IR where as Hubble seems mostly in the visible spectrum.

So as well as detecting early galaxies, other plans are to help find exo planets around other stars too.

So it will complement other telescopes. combine data from different telescopes to build up a really detained pictures of objects.
