Orbiting at one million miles from Earth in the second Lagrange Point, this telescope will use an infrared telescope to look back in time. Light from farther away is older than light we see from our sun. It takes 8 minutes for light to travel from our sun to Earth. The telescope will look out into the farthest reaches of the universe and allowing scientists to ‘see’ light produced from objects formed just 100 million years after the Big Bang. The Big Bang occurred 13.8 billion years ago. This would be the oldest light ever imaged and will allow us to characterize events associated with the formation of our universe.
