NASA’s Webb Telescope Keeping Cool with Ultra-thin DuPont
2022年1月3日 · JWST’s sunshield was designed to be folded origami-style, twelve times in order to fit inside the Ariane 5 rocket, so the Kapton ® polyimide film layers needed to be ultra-thin. The Kapton ® -enabled sunshield is a critical part of the Webb telescope design because the infrared cameras and instruments aboard must be kept very cold, under ...
James Webb Space Telescope sunshield - Wikipedia
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) sunshield is a passive thermal control system deployed post-launch to shield the telescope and instrumentation from the light and heat of the Sun, Earth, and Moon. By keeping the telescope and instruments in permanent shadow, it allows them to cool to their design temperature of 40 kelvins (−233 °C; −388 °F).
