Grab your crayons, colored pencils, or paints and download these Webb coloring templates to create your own colorful version of the James Webb Space Telescope!
This is our original paper model. Note that the design of the spacecraft changed slightly since this was designed. There is a momentum flap on the back and the solar panel array changed. The model is approximately 1/80th scale.Build A Webb Model
Build a paper model of the Webb Telescope or design your own and show us your work!

![Image containing key facts about the James Webb Space Telescope. The image is titled "JAMES WEBB SPACE TELESCOPE" with a subtitle of "English". The key facts are listed in the image are: [Line 1] Will be the premier space observatory for astronomers worldwide, extending the tantalizing discoveries of the Hubble Space Telescope. [Line 2] An international collaboration among NASA, the European Space Agency, and the Canadian Space Agency. [Line 3] The largest telescope ever placed in space; 100 times more powerful than Hubble. [Line 4] So big it has to fold origami-style to fit in the rocket and will unfold like a “Transformer” in space. [Line 5] Has a 5-layer sunshield that protects the telescope from the infrared radiation of the Sun, Earth, and Moon; like having sun protection of SPF 1 million. [Line 6] With unprecedented infrared sensitivity, it will peer back in time over 13.5 billion years to see the first galaxies born after the Big Bang. [Line 7] Will orbit the Sun 1.5 million kilometers from the Earth. (Hubble orbits 560 kilometers above the Earth.)](https://science.nasa.gov/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/postcard-english.jpg?w=4096&format=jpeg)
