How This Telescope Searches For Aliens

This new image will help us answer the biggest question: Are we alone? Subscribe if you love optimistic technology stories. NASA just released the first pictures from the James Webb Space Telescope, the most powerful telescope ever built. They’re incredible. They show the deepest we’ve ever seen into space, stars being born, galaxies colliding. But the least beautiful one is my favorite. It’s the spectrum of exoplanet WASP 96-b. In simpler terms, it’s a picture of the atmosphere of a planet over 1,000 light years away. Most simply put… it’s our new way to find aliens.
