  • $\begingroup$ Ars Technica's All hail the Ariane 5 rocket, which doubled the Webb telescope’s lifetime "Because ten years seemed like a fairly short operational period for such an expensive and capable space telescope, NASA had already been contemplating a costly and risky robotic refueling mission. But now that should not be necessary, as Webb has at least two decades of life." $\endgroup$ Commented Jan 11, 2022 at 22:46
