A detailed study of the atmosphere of a gas giant planet 1000 light-years away was one of the observations. The atmosphere of this world was probed by watching the dip in light as the planet passed in front of its host star, a technique that will be used to study many more planets in the future.
In a NASA event that revealed the observations, Knicole Coln, an astronomer at NASA, said that there were bumps and wiggles that indicated the presence of water in the atmosphere.
Don Pollacco, an astronomer at Warwick University in the UK, says that these are the most difficult observations that will be made by the JWST.

The view of a dying star throwing off its outer layers was unveiled today. The view is much more detailed than an image taken by the Hubble Space Telescope in 1998, which shows the two stars at the center of the nebula.
Stephan's Quintet is a group of five galaxies about 300 million light-years away. Gas and dust are being transferred between the four interacting stars. The formation of stars in the galaxies is shown in the view of the telescope. Individual stars can be seen inside the galaxies, thanks to the power of JWST. Mark McCaughrean is a senior advisor at the European Space Agency. This telescope will be turned up to 11.

There is a region of active star formation nearly 8,000 light-years away from Earth. There are hundreds of new stars never seen before, and structures in the dust and gas of the nebula that can't be explained, according to an astronomer at NASA.
Thanks to JWST, we are able to see a lot more. What's going on here is revealed by it.
CSA, and NASA are included in the list.
The images are just a glimpse of what is to come from the project. The telescope's first year of scientific observations is underway. There are a lot of data coming our way.
“It is a new window into the history of our universe,” President Biden said yesterday. “We’re getting a glimpse of the first light to shine through that window.”
