The new documentary also includes the moment scientists looked at color images for the first time, with those showing “stellar nurseries” and “cosmic dances” of five galaxies.
The network stated that the £ 8 billion telescope uses infrared radiation to see the sky, which is the longest wave of light that our eyes can sense.
The James Webb Telescope, the successor to the Hubble telescope, has given scientists the ability to look deep into the universe and study the atmospheres of planets in our Milky Way galaxy to see if there is life there.
The new technology is the most technically advanced telescope ever, and it looks back in time more than the Hubble telescope, to the era about 200 million years after the Big Bang when the first stars and galaxies appeared, some from 13 billion years ago.
Webb’s primary mission is to capture the faint light from these objects at the edge of our observable universe so that scientists can learn how they formed.
The telescope was first designed in the late 1980s and consists of a mirror six times larger than the Hubble mirror.
The BBC documentary will take a deep look into the world of the James Webb Space Telescope, the lives of the engineers who built it and the astronomers who will use it.
Meanwhile, NASA has detected water on a gas giant planet more than 1,150 light-years from Earth using groundbreaking technology.
