Scope Better than Hubble To Launch
Does anyone know the name of the super telescope that is to be launched I believe in 2009 (?) that will provide much greater pictures that the Hubble scope by filtering out all light from stars? It will allow us to see never before sen solar systems. It is shaped like a long box.

This is the telescope that is supposed to replace the Hubble Space Telescope:

The James Webb Space Telescope

And, it is scheduled to be launched in 2013.

Thank you bd, for answering this question. I no longer wonder about this.
Thanks to you both.
