New Visualization From NASAs Webb Telescope Explores Cosmic Cliffs The James Webb Space Telescope is the world’s premier space science observatory Webb is solving mysteries in our solar system, looking beyond to distant worlds around other stars, and probing the mysterious structures and origins of our universe and our place in it
Webb and Hubble Compared HUDF (NIRCam Image) | Webb Caption The capabilities of NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope’s Near-Infrared Camera are on full display in this comparison between Hubble’s and Webb’s observation of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field The left, which demonstrates Hubble’s observation with its Wide Field Camera 3, required an exposure time of 11 3 days, while the right only took 0 83 days Several areas within the Webb
Pillars of Creation Star in New Visualization from NASAs Hubble and . . . Combining data from NASA's Hubble and James Webb space telescopes, a team from NASA's Universe of Learning at the Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI) in Baltimore, Maryland has produced a breathtaking new 3D visualization of the towering "Pillars of Creation" in the Eagle Nebula This is the most comprehensive, detailed, multiwavelength movie yet of these iconic star-birthing clouds
About the James Webb Space Telescope Illustration of the Telescope In the middle of the image is an illustration of the James Webb Space Telescope at an angle, primarily from its right (or starboard) side This view shows a very small portion of the bottom of the telescope’s multi-layered sunshield, which appears pink on the bottommost layer and is roughly shaped like an oblong hexagon Above that, all of the telescope’s
Horsehead Nebula (MIRI Image) | Webb This image of the Horsehead Nebula from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope focuses on a portion of the horse’s “mane ” It was taken with Webb’s MIRI (Mid-Infrared Instrument)
Infrared Flickers and Flares from Sagittarius A* | Webb Caption This timelapse video compresses about 9 hours of infrared observations by NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope into 30 seconds Webb observed the black hole at the center of the Milky Way, known as Sagittarius A* (A-star) Webb detected both faint flickers and brighter flares (one of which is seen near the end of the video) These brightness fluctuations may originate from two different
NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope Finds Most Distant Known Galaxy Scientists used NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope’s NIRSpec (Near-Infrared Spectrograph) to obtain a spectrum of the distant galaxy JADES-GS-z14-0 in order to accurately measure its redshift and therefore determine its age The redshift can be determined from the location of a critical wavelength known as the Lyman-alpha break
NASA’s Webb Reveals Cosmic Cliffs, Glittering Landscape of Star Birth Captured in infrared light by NASA’s new James Webb Space Telescope, this image reveals for the first time previously invisible areas of star birth Called the Cosmic Cliffs, Webb’s seemingly three-dimensional picture looks like craggy mountains on a moonlit evening
