Launched on a mission to peer deeper into the universe than ever before, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is revolutionizing how we see the cosmos. In this episode, we explore how this marvel of modern engineering works, what it’s already discovered, and why its infrared vision is a game-changer for astronomy.

And stick around until the end, where I reveal next week’s illuminating episode — one where lightning never sleeps…
