    When we look at the sky on a clear night, our eyes can only see an array of bright dots that come from stars.

    Check out the pictures in this link...

    The James Webb Space Telescope will be active in 2013 and will cost billions of $$$ to create. It will produce imagery that will blow away anything that Hubble captured.

    The James Webb scope should be kick ass....but the majority of it's strengths will be in the infrared range, and pictures will be colorized for us to visualize.

    Yeah I know this.. at least the pictures are only colorized and not CGI representations of the original captured imagery.. Apparently NASA only do this to make the different reactions/events more 'pronounced'.

    IIRC, the James Webb Space Telescope will capture imagery that will explain why there are huge burning stars chaotically reacting in the vaccum of space.

    WTF? OMFG?!?!?
