James Webb Space Telescope Lifesize Mockup Poster

JWST @ SXSW The full-scale James Webb Space Telescope model at South by Southwest in Austin. Credit: NASA/Chris Gunn Image description: In the background is a hazy night sky with clouds reflecting golden light. The skyline of Austin is spread against the sky. In the foreground is a full-scale model of the James Webb Space Telescope. It is the length of a tennis court and 28 feet tall. People are clustered beneath the model's giant sunshield, which has 5 layers. Atop the sunshield sits the model's primary mirror with the secondary mirror struts (a tripod of them) jutting out to the left. The model is illuminated by lights. The sunshield glows blue, and beneath it, where the spacecraft bus sits, is purple. http://www.nasa.gov/audience/formedia/features/MP_Photo_Guidelines.html https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/
