How powerful is James Webb telescope?

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), also known as Webb, is a large, space-based observatory optimized for infrared wavelengths, designed to complement and extend the discoveries of the Hubble Space Telescope.

The JWST cost approximately $10 billion & 100 times more sensitive than the Hubble Space Telescope.

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is so powerful due to its large, gold-coated mirror, its infrared capabilities, and its location far from Earth, allowing it to see fainter, more distant objects and penetrate dust clouds, surpassing the capabilities of the Hubble Space Telescope.

JWST orbits the sun at a stable point 1.5 million kilometers from Earth, far beyond Earth's atmosphere, which can distort images and block infrared light. This location allows JWST to maintain extremely cold operating temperatures and achieve stable pointing, essential for its high-resolution observations.
