Answer:

  • Their missions are different - Hubble Telescope's goal is to capture distant stars and galaxies while the James Webb telescope was always meant for long-term exposure and deep space capturing
  • The Hubble telescope specializes in ultraviolet wavelength - its infrared technology enables it to capture more images from older galaxies.
  • The james webb telescope has a more profound infrared vision - James Webb has been significantly front-loaded with infrared technology to capture more light and a better span of deep space.
