New Scientist Default Image

The image was taken by a telescope.

NASA, CSA, and CSA are part of the space program.

The first set of full-resolution science images were released on July 12th. An analysis of the composition of an exoplanet named WASP-96b was part of the set.

Everything you need to know about the telescope that took these pictures is here.

These images are special. We didn't have the Hubble Space Telescope before.

Hubble produces beautiful images of space. The pictures ofJWST are more detailed. It is able to see things that Hubble can't because it observes in different wavelength.

The edge of the observable universe will be seen by the JWST. The age of the universe is thought to be about 13 billion years old.

Between 100 and 250 million years have passed since the big bang. It is much farther away than that because of the expansion of the universe.

JWST will study black holes. Is it possible to create an image like the one from the event horizon telescope?

It is not possible to make an image of a black hole like the event horizon telescope did, but it will look at them. The picture of Stephan's quintet that was just released provides some interesting information.

James Webb Space Telescope’s first deep-field image is stunning

The deepest and highest-resolution image of the universe has ever been captured by a space telescope.

Is it possible for a strong lens to be able to see yourself? Light does a U-Turn.

Absolutely! A photon sphere is a feature of a black hole, where gravity pulls light into the hole. If you aim a light at the photon sphere, you could see the light coming from the other side of the black hole.

Is it possible to make a telescope that can see further than the beginning of time?

I would love to. Up until 380,000 years after the big bang, the universe was completely filled with hot plasma and was therefore opaque.

Is it possible to see further back than 380,000 years after the big bang?

This is a question that I really like. Due to the motion of mass, there weren't any structures large enough to create waves until after the big bang.

This side-by-side comparison shows observations of the Southern Ring Nebula in near-infrared light, at left, and mid-infrared light, at right, from NASA???s Webb Telescope. This scene was created by a white dwarf star ??? the remains of a star like our Sun after it shed its outer layers and stopped burning fuel though nuclear fusion. Those outer layers now form the ejected shells all along this view. In the Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) image, the white dwarf appears to the lower left of the bright, central star, partially hidden by a diffraction spike. The same star appears ??? but brighter, larger, and redder ??? in the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) image. This white dwarf star is cloaked in thick layers of dust, which make it appear larger. The brighter star in both images hasn???t yet shed its layers. It closely orbits the dimmer white dwarf, helping to distribute what it???s ejected. Over thousands of years and before it became a white dwarf, the star periodically ejected mass ??? the visible shells of material. As if on repeat, it contracted, heated up ??? and then, unable to push out more material, pulsated. Stellar material was sent in all directions ??? like a rotating sprinkler ??? and provided the ingredients for this asymmetrical landscape. Today, the white dwarf is heating up the gas in the inner regions ??? which appear blue at left and red at right. Both stars are lighting up the outer regions, shown in orange and blue, respectively. The images look very different because NIRCam and MIRI collect different wavelengths of light. NIRCam observes near-infrared light, which is closer to the visible wavelengths our eyes detect. MIRI goes farther into the infrared, picking up mid-infrared wavelengths. The second star more clearly appears in the MIRI image, because this instrument can see the gleaming dust around it, bringing it more clearly into view. The stars ??? and their layers of light ??? steal more attention in the NIRCam image, while dust pl

The first set of science data from JWST consists of clear images of the Eight-Burst Nebula, Stephan's Quintet, and WASP-96b.

Is it possible that scientists will revise the accepted age of the universe to be much older than 13 billion years?

It is possible that the data from JWST will cause us to revise the age of the universe, but it is more likely that it will go down than up.

There was nothing unexpected about the spectrum of the galaxy.

There was nothing shocking in the data that came down so far. All of the systems are well studied, but now we have more detail than ever before. We are new, but I don't think that's a big deal.

Wasp-96 b was chosen as the first exoplanet to be analysed. What made it different?

Some evidence of clouds and haze can be seen in the new spectrum, but it is not significant. The starlight can shine right through the atmosphere and we can analyse without being blocked by clouds.

Astronomers will have to decide what to take a picture of.

The first year of science has been mapped out. More than 1000 proposals for what to observe were made by researchers. More about what was selected can be found here.
