NASA is footing the bulk of the mission’s bill, but the European Space Agency, which contributed to two of the four on-board science instruments, is responsible for launching the telescope. That’s why, as soon as December 24, JWST is slated to take flight from ESA’s tropical spaceport in French Guiana—its final Earthly port of call before sailing beyond the reach of human hands.
This sprawling launch facility is carved into the fringe of the northeastern Amazonian rainforest. Portions of the spaceport are so remote that it’s not unusual to spot jaguars slinking across empty roads. Inside the tall, cavernous buildings where rockets are assembled, the intoxicating melodies of tropical birds are often louder than the clanging contraptions that ready humankind’s machines for their journeys to the stars.
