The Making of a Spacecraft - An Inside Look

Inside NASA, engineers and scientists are building the largest space telescope ever – the James Webb Space Telescope. Once launched into space this telescope is designed to take a vital glimpse into the Universe and will build on the discoveries of Hubble. Our NASA communications team has documented the making of this impressive spacecraft and will share an incredibly rare view of some of the best animations, videos, photos, VR and interviews from the NASA and international team hard at work.
