A fascinating, ground-level backstage pass to the creation, launch, and reach of the James Webb Space Telescope.NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, the world’s largest orbiting astronomy observatory, is now nearly a million miles from Earth, probing the first stars and galaxies, documenting the structure and evolution of the universe, and searching for signs of life in other solar systems. In a series of extraordinary photographs, Inside the Star Factory tells the story of the Webb Telescope from conception to launch—a marvel of ingenuity and engineering that entailed more than 100 million people hours over a span of thirty years.The project’s lead photographer Chris Gunn was there from the start, documenting the Webb’s tumultuous history—the behind-the-scenes details of its construction, from the cutting-edge technology required for an observatory operating at temperatures as low as –370°F, beyond reach for repair, to the human story of an engineering team pursuing an unprecedented goal under incomparable pressure. Derided as the “telescope that ate astronomy,” billions of dollars over budget, ten years over schedule, nearly canceled twice, Webb was simply too big to fail.Accompanied by science writer Christopher Wanjek’s overview of the Webb’s history and profiles of the scientists and engineers who built it, this exclusive illustrated guide shows readers the heady world of scientific discovery at the very limits of human knowledge—and the very beginning of space and time.

Where's the line between having the faith to step out for what you think God wants you to do and making unwise decisions you rationalize to be 'of God'? Chris and Jessica set out on a journey to find that very line. After Chris had physical breakdown and recognized everything he wanted to do in life was not actually taking place, he and his wife set out to fulfill a dream they had - to travel the world.

No fundraising. No working. Just prayer.Booking a one-way ticket to Asia without a plan and very little money, they wondered if fulfilling their dream to travel and minister to those who they came across was God's best for them or if they were just being plain stupid. Chris tells a compelling story, walking you through the thoughts, emotions and realities a lifestyle of faith can produce. After 11 months, they had traveled to 24 countries completely debt-free. By simply believing God to meet their needs, they experienced shocking accounts that will undoubtedly challenge your level of faith. The Line Between Faith & Stupidity explores the freedoms and challenges Chris and Jessica faced and invites you to give your crazy dreams a shot.
