Ron, thanks for the update.
For those who don't know, James Webb (1906-1992) was NASA chief in the 1960s. His name is most commonly linked to the Apollo moon program.
An experienced attorney and businessman, it is said that he did more for science than any other government official.
The actual James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) will have a 6.5 metre diameter mirror and a sunshield the size of a tennis court.
Regards, Rob.
