MIRI, or the Mid-Infrared Instrument, is an instrument on the James Webb Space Telescope. [1]
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is a space telescope designed to conduct infrared astronomy. ... There are two sensors, each of 4 megapixels. [47] MIRI ...
Integrated Science Instrument Module (ISIM) is a component of the James Webb Space Telescope, a large international infrared space telescope launched on 25 December 2021. [1] ISIM is the heart of the JWST, and holds the main science payload which includes four science instruments and the fine guidance sensor.
Fine Guidance Sensor and Near Infrared Imager and Slitless Spectrograph; MIRI (Mid-Infrared Instrument) (James Webb Space Telescope's 5–28 micron camera/spectrograph) NIRCam (NIR camera for JWST up to 5 micron wavelength light) Integrated Science Instrument Module (ISIM, houses NIRSpec and the other JWST instruments)
Technicians work on a mock-up of the JWST spacecraft bus in 2014 [1] The spacecraft bus is a carbon fibre box that houses systems of the telescope and so is the primary support element of the James Webb Space Telescope, launched on 25 December 2021. It hosts a multitude of computing, communication, propulsion, and structural components. [2]

Fine Guidance Sensor and Near Infrared Imager and Slitless Spectrograph (FGS-NIRISS) is an instrument on the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) that combines a Fine Guidance Sensor and a science instrument, a near-infrared imager and a ...
NIRCam wrapped up in 2013 NIRCam being installed in 2014. NIRCam (Near-InfraRed Camera) is an instrument aboard the James Webb Space Telescope.It has two major tasks, as an imager from 0.6 to 5 μm wavelength, and as a wavefront sensor to keep the 18-section mirrors functioning as one.
JADES-GS-z14-0 is a high-redshift Lyman-Break galaxy in the constellation Fornax that was discovered in 2024 using NIRcam as part of the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES) program. [1] [2] It has a redshift of 14.32, making it the most distant galaxy and astronomical object ever discovered.
