The launch is scheduled for December 22nd and a special Library Take-Out will be available at all Library branches and the Mobile Library from December 13-18.

A few quick facts:

• The James Webb Space Telescope is 100 times more powerful than its predecessor, the Hubble Space Telescope.
• It will orbit the sun 1 million miles away from Earth.
