the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has not been launched. The JWST is scheduled to be launched in December 2021.
Once deployed, the specific direction the JWST will point depends on the scientific objectives and observations planned by astronomers and mission controllers. The telescope's field of view and targets will vary throughout its mission.
Regarding the "beginning" of the universe, the JWST will not be directly observing the Big Bang itself. Instead, it will focus on studying the early universe and its formation through observations of distant galaxies, stars, and exoplanets. By detecting and analyzing light from these distant celestial objects, the JWST aims to provide insights into the early stages of cosmic evolution and the formation of galaxies and stars.
The telescope will utilize its suite of advanced instruments, including its near-infrared camera, spectrographs, and other detectors, to observe distant objects and gather data about their composition, temperature, and other important properties. This information will contribute to our understanding of the early universe and its development over time.
Once the JWST is operational and scientists have determined its specific observation plans, the telescope will be pointed at various targets and directions in space to carry out its scientific mission.
