The James Webb Space Telescope, engineered by Mike Menzel, stands out as the most powerful and ambitious deep space telescope, resembling a time machine more than a telescope due to its scale and mission. This marvel, designed by humanity, showcases the incredible wonder and awe of space exploration.
Awe reduces stress, helps us forget our minor worries and makes us feel more connected to the people around us. We all need more awe in our lives - but surely it's not that easy to find awesome experiences on your average Tuesday?
Actor Tony Hale explains how everyday awe helps ease his anxieties, while UC Berkeley's Dacher Keltner shows us how to find awe in music, art, scenery... even in a walk around our block. And Dr Laurie explores the things that give her a sense of awe with the help of Mike Menzel - who built a space telescope that lets us see billions of years into the past.
