The space telescope is now in its final phases of getting its science instruments operational...As the telescope moves through space it will constantly find distant stars and galaxies and point at them with extreme precision to acquire images and full range of electromagnetic signals..The telescope will observe planets and their Moons including asteroids and comets within our Solar System, which move across the background stars of our galaxy..

Even if they could show 'Life' on these exoplanets...They won't.
Imagine all the chaos it might cause.

The telescope isn't even completely set up yet and already people are making up conspiracies about it.

So, lets all pretend that NASA hasn't gone public with their search for extraterrestrial intelligent life via analysis of alien atmospheres - which they have already done for several exoplanets.
