The primary goals of JWST are to study galaxy, star and planet formation in the Universe. To see the very first stars and galaxies form in the early Universe, we have to look deep into space to look back in time (because it takes light time to travel from there to here, the farther out we look, the further we look back in time). The Universe is expanding, and therefore the farther we look, the faster objects are moving away from us, creating redshift.

Infrared light from the sun is experienced on the earth in the form of heat. Quality sunglasses protect your eyes from the fatiguing and drying effects of infrared radiation.

YES, using infrared LED photo rejuvenation lights according to directions will help normalize dry skin.

Infrared is one of the many forms of light on the electromagnetic spectrum that are not visible to the human eye. The electromagnetic spectrum includes gamma rays, X-rays, ultraviolet, visible, infrared, microwaves, and radio waves. Infrared light waves are longer than visible light waves, and shorter than microwaves. An independent study was conducted in August 2000 by the United States Department of Health and Human Services regarding the safety of infrared light.

Far infrared light is the beneficial part of the sun’s spectrum that is invisible to the human eye and felt as heat.

I have rosacea and VERY sensitive skin. I found that the DPL System is so powerful that I needed to reduce my treatments to 4-5 minutes to prevent a flare-up. I also found it helps to apply a damp cloth to my skin after each treatment. And be sure to start with clean skin...lotions could heat up and cause a problem.

YES, I have seen reports of hyper-pigmentation and scars fading over time from the use of these lights.

I have read reports of accelerated hair growth and stimulation of dormant hair follicles with the use of infrared LED light.

It is safer than natural sunlight. Our infrared light and heat has all the benefits of sunlight without the danger of ultra-violet rays. Our infrared light penetrates almost 2” into the body faster then conventional saunas thus implementing health benefits quicker and more beneficially.

The Earth's atmosphere is nearly opaque and glows brightly at most of the infrared wavelengths that JWST will observe, so a cold telescope in space is required. For those wavelengths that are transmitted, the Earth's atmosphere blurs the images seen from the ground and causes stars to twinkle. Adaptive optics can correct for this blurring currently only over small fields of view near bright stars functioning as reference beacons, allowing access to only a small fraction of the sky.

JWST is designed to discover and study the first stars and galaxies that formed in the early Universe. To see these faint objects, it must be able to detect things that are ten billion times as faint as the faintest stars visible without a telescope. This is 10 to 100 times fainter than Hubble can see.

The light ray is a one sided brush bound to a translucent world model with alpha about .3. There is a group of textures with alpha mask that look like waves of color that I used for the texture. The textures are in the root "Detail" textures. The easiest thing you could do is grab one from a sample map. I forget which map name I saw some in, but it's the one that looks like Leadworks. It has the piston doors. Around the doors and lights are these things that I call "AirLights.

In 1908, the German physicist G. Mie derived a theory to explain the behaviour of light when normal Rayleigh scatter no longer applies. Many people have tried to explain the principles of Mie Theory (forward light scatter) in layman's terms, but the science is hard to follow. The Mie scattering calculations are so complex that large computers are required, particularly if the complex refractive index must be used, as for metallic scattering particles.

Because infrared light has no ultra-violet rays, it is actually as beneficial, but much safer than natural sunlight. It is also more effective than steam because the infrared light penetrates the body so quickly and safely.

A little, in much the same way as modern camcorders. The CCD is sensitive to infrared, but it has a filter in place that does a pretty good job of masking it. While the camera will show bright direct infrared sources (like LEDs) as bright white, IR lighting doesn't work very well as scene illumination.

JWST is being designed for 5 years operation at the second Lagrange (L2) point; the goal is to have a mission lifetime of 10 years.

The most important size of a telescope is the diameter of the primary mirror, which will be about 6 meters (20 feet) for the JWST. This is about 2.5 times larger than the diameter of Hubble, or about 6 times larger in area. The JWST will have a mass of approximately 6,200 kg, with a weight of 13,400 lbs on Earth (in orbit, everything is weightless), a little more than half the mass of Hubble.

The JWST includes the Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam), the Near-Infrared Spectrograph (NIRSpec), the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI), and the Fine Guidance Sensor (FGS).

JWST will have two types of detector sensor chip arrays (SCA): visible and near-infrared SCAs with 2,048 x 2,048 pixels, and mid-infrared SCAs with about 1,024 x 1,024 pixels. Several detectors will be mounted within instrument Focal Plane Arrays (FPA) to give a larger field of view. NIRCam, NIRSpec and FGS will use Mercury Cadmium Telluride (HgCdTe) detectors made by Rockwell Scientific. MIRI will employ arsenic doped silicon (Si:As) detectors produced by Raytheon.
