The James Webb telescope is going to be launched in a year from now.
It's going to have a geostationary orbit about 1.500.000 km away from earth.
Too far out to reach it with a manned spaceship to repair it like Hubble in case something goes wrong.
I see three options.
1.Everything goes well. Wala. Science galore.
-
Everything goes well. But we don't see any pictures because what they have seen/found is instantly declared classified, and the mission is declared as failed because of "unforeseen" technical difficulties.
-
Nasa declares the mission as failed because of unforeseen technical difficulties. Can't be repaired like Hubble because it's too far away.
