Webb will far surpass both those telescopes, being able to see many more and much older stars and galaxies. [169] Observing in the infrared spectrum is a key technique for achieving this, because of cosmological redshift, and because it better penetrates obscuring dust and gas. This allows observation of dimmer, cooler objects.
NASA released the first complete set of images from the James Webb Space Telescope, including stars in their infancy and their final gasps.
The James Webb Space Telescope has spent three years observing remote galaxies, black holes and distant planets, but its latest discovery was a little bit closer to home.. A team of NASA ...
Webb's first operational image was the Webb's First Deep Field, released on July 11, 2022, with it being the deepest sharp infrared image of the universe to date. [55] The rest of the first set of images was released the next day, which include full-color processed images of the Carina Nebula , Southern Ring Nebula , Stephan's Quintet , as well ...
The James Webb Space Telescope has helped demystify the strange 2009 observation of a giant star about 25 times more massive than the sun that appeared to disappear from existence.
Images of NGC 3132 reveal two stars close together within the nebulosity, one of 10th magnitude, the other 16th, located about 1.7″ away from the central star.The central star of the planetary nebula is a white dwarf, and is the fainter of the two stars.
