The JWST will orbit at approximately 1.5 million kilometres from Earth, four times farther from Earth than the Moon. If anything goes awry, humans will not be able to service the telescope. Simply put, the JWST will either work or it will not. The side of JWST that always faces the Sun will constantly sit at a scorching 185º F, hotter than Death Valley (the h
