Is technology like the webb telescope design , or curiosity design open and public ? I mean eg CAD , components used , other details ?


In general, no. Individual elements of the design might be explained in some articles, and there are some overview articles like e.g. https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11214-012-9892-2 but the actual engineering resources are usually not available to public


I think they keep these from public bc lots of defense contractors are actually involved in this project, too. And it's basically impossible to ask them to release those resources.
