- The Hubble telescope is placed 547 km from earth, James Webb telescope will be placed at 1.5 MILLION km from earth. If we are going to observe galaxies really far away, the field of view should not be much different, so why not keep it close to earth so we can carry out repairs operations if needed? https://www.reddit.com/r/space/comments/6mp0qv/the_hubble_telescope_is_placed_547_km_from_earth/ 4 comments space
