The launch of the James Webb space telescope scheduled for December 22 won't take place before December 24, NASA announced on Wednesday. The NASA project, launched in 1989, was originally expected to deploy in the early 2000s. But multiple problems forced delays and a tripling of the telescope's original budget with a final price tag of nearly 10 billion dollars (8.8 billion euros).
