NASA has installed a new webcam so that we can watch the progress of the upcoming James Webb Space Telescope right on our computers. The Webb telescope is designed to observe deep space, and it is expected to launch sometime in 2014. It is a joint project between NASA, the European Space Agency, and the Canadian Space Agency.
The webcam is located in the Building 29 clean room at Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland, and the image is updated once every minute. Of course, people will be visible mostly during normal work hours from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. EST. What an interesting way to actually view the work happening at NASA.
