James Webb Space Telescope smashes its own record to find the earliest galaxies that ever existed
The James Webb Space Telescope has spotted five galaxy candidates dating to just 200 million years after the Big Bang, making them the earliest ever detected. And there could be many more.
Review Of Infinite Cosmos: Visions From The James Webb Space Telescope
Brian Greene (Cosmic String Theory) and Astrophysicist Ethan Siegel have collaborated on a National Geographic coffee-table book almost as inspiring as the night sky.
James Webb Space Telescope 'pushed to its limits' to see most distant galaxies ever
Prior to this discovery, made as part of the James Webb Space Telescope's (JWST's) Galactic Legacy Infrared Midplane Survey Extraordinaire (GLIMPSE) project, the most distant galaxy observed by the powerful space telescope was JADES-GS-z14-0. That one was seen as it was when the universe was around 280 million years old.
Space photo of the week: James Webb telescope spots a secret star factory in the Sombrero Galaxy
This week, the James Webb Space Telescope zooms in on the iconic Sombrero Galaxy, revealing the first-ever mid-infrared observations of the hat-shaped wonder.
See the Sombrero Galaxy Like Never Before, as the James Webb Telescope Captures It in Unprecedented Detail
Looking at the Hubble Space Telescope’s famous image of the Sombrero Galaxy, it’s pretty clear why said galaxy was named after the Mexican broad-brimmed hat. Now, however, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has produced a mid-infrared light image that reveals the galaxy in unprecedented detail—and challenges its nickname.
