- JWST - Timeline Of Events: The James Webb Space Telescope will not be in orbit around the Earth, like the Hubble Space Telescope is - it will actually orbit the Sun, 1.5 million kilometers (1 million miles) away from the Earth at what is called the second Lagrange point or L2. https://webb.nasa.gov/content/about/orbit.html 21 comments space

- James Webb Space Telescope will orbit a lagrange point know as L2. A lagrange point is a point where the gravity of 2 objects (the Sun and Earth in this instance) are roughly equal. JWST, Earth and the sun will always be in the same position relative to each other because of this. https://webb.nasa.gov/content/about/orbit.html 11 comments science
