JWST out there chilling at our L2 Lagrange Point would like a word. (I know it's a completely different kind of orbit)

    JWST has solar panels and an umbrella, it's in sunlight

    You're right I thought it was much closer to the L2 point but I suppose parking it there would be rather difficult (the energy required should go against infinity after all).

    So technically it is very much possible to hide from the sun, it just needs some extra energy.
