For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Lankeela, because the speed limit is the speed of light we see everything as it was when the light started its journey. Now for the close stuff that's negligible but even our sun we see as it was 8 minutes ago. Now if we look at objects like galaxies then we see them as they were when that lights started its journey. Eg Andromeda, our neighbouring galaxy is 2.5m light years away, so we see that as it was 2.5m years ago. So the new telescope allows us to see further than ever before and thus further back in time than ever before.

Some James Webb Space Telescope puns for DTC:
How does the JWST connect to the internet?
Via a Webb server.
Why was the JWST launched on Christmas Day?
So it could reach a stable orbit.
Why can’t the JWST see ultraviolet light?
Because it’s out of ‘scope.
Why can’t the JWST’s sun-screen catch COVID?
Because it’s shielding.
Why is there a gap between James and Webb?
Because it’s a space telescope.
I’ll get my coat…
