The first full set of James Webb Space Telescope images were revealed, showing a foamy blue and orange shot of a dying star and other parts of the universe seen in a new light.
were unveiled on Tuesday, including a foamy blue and orange shot of a dying star and parts of the universe seen in a new light.
Webb's use of the infrared light spectrum allows the telescope to see through the cosmic dust and "see light from faraway light from the corners of the universe," he said. NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope reveals emerging stellar nurseries and individual stars in the Carina Nebula that were previously obscured. Images of"Cosmic Cliffs" showcase Webb’s cameras’ capabilities to peer through cosmic dust, shedding new liA third image revealed never-before-seen details of five galaxies in a cosmic dance, some 290 million light-years away. "Stephan’s Quintet" was first seen 225 years ago in the constellation Pegasus.
It's the first to utilize Deep Field abilities and contains a cluster of galaxies known as SMACS 0723. Sasselov said he and his colleague Charles Alcock first thought "we’ve seen this before." Then they looked closer at the image and pronounced the result not only beautiful but "worth all that waiting" for the much-delayed project.The world’s biggest and most powerful space telescope rocketed away last December from French Guiana in South America. In January, it reached its lookout point of 1 million miles from Earth.
