Galileo Galilei's trial
Dialogue Concerning the Two chief world systems was published by Galileo Galilei in the year 1632, in which Galileo had defended the perspective of heliocentrism. Under the guidance of Pope Urban VIII, Galileo was urged to share perspectives on the Copernican system in a hypothetical manner. Discussing the theory of the Earth's rotation around the sun and the phases of Venus. Galileo was then summoned by holy office to proceedings pertaining to strong suspicions of heresy. The General Congregation had informed Galileo of the 1616 violation of spread of writings and teachings pertaining to the Copernican theory. Galileo summoned once more to undergo questioning pertaining to his true feelings about the Copernican theory. Throughout the course of the trial, Galileo was charged for giving the Copernican model a physical type reality, despite the claims from Galileo insisting on the hypothetical nature of discussion. Galileo was charged with heresy. After the conduction of the trial, Galileo had then being formally punished to reciting the penitential psalms on a weekly basis for the next three years. In the year 1633, he was granted to live at Arcetri to live in the country side, he later passed away in the year 1642.

NASA's 2021 telescope launch
Announced in 2011, NASA had announced their launch for the long anticipated James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). The $10 billion telescopic launch is planned to relay images of deep space and have a 6.6 meter diameter mirror attached to the telescope, which registers near to mid-range of infrared radiation wavelengths. The launch date is scheduled for December 22, 2021. The James Webb Telescope is said to be the successor of the Hubble telescope launched in the year 1990 which confirmed the existence of black holes and determined the age of the Universe which was younger than originally anticipated. The launch of the JWST is an international project being led by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), working with the Canadian Space agency (CSA), and the European Space Agency (ESA). Unlike the low orbit Hubble telescope, the JWST's range of sight will not be interfered by the varying levels of astrological light such as the sun and the moon. The telescope must maintain between 85 to 135 degrees in relations to the sun line to establish visibility. The observation opportunities potentially ranges from finding the universe's first known light to revealing the newly formed stars and astrological formation of the galaxy. The James Webb Space Telescope makes higher precision observations possible through the Near Infrared Spectrograph (NIRSpec). NIRspec utilizing slit spectroscopy achieves higher levels of sensitivity than other telescopic projects launched prior. The JWST's sensitivity in conjunction with the high resolution, mode diversity, and the NIRSpec's wide coverage of wave length is thought to bring break through scientific discoveries within the next decade.The observatory's mission goal is for about 10 years and most of the time is not allocated to provide astronomers an opportunity to within the JWST. The information collected by the JWST can be accessed by request if a proposal is sent into NASA.
