Answer:

The James Webb Space Telescope will advance the discoveries made by Hubble because it is an infrared telescope, so it can see more distant objects.

Step-by-step explanation:

James Webb Space Telescope is a project of an unmanned mission of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), with the purpose of putting an observatory in the space to capture infrared radiation. The telescope should observe the formation of the first galaxies and stars, study the evolution of galaxies, see the production of elements by stars and see the processes of formation of stars and planets.

The telescope was initially called the Next Generation Space Telescope or NGST. The term "Next Generation" refers to the fact that it is intended to replace the Hubble Space Telescope, because after its launch, new technologies were developed, allowing to build the new telescope under a new conception.
