Other telescopes can't do things like that.
The observatory is the most powerful in space. The European Space Agency collaborated with NASA and the Canadian Space Agency to create a video that shows how it can view distant objects.
The site of a stellar death some 2500 light-years away is called the Southern Ring Nebula. A sun-sized star has run out of fuel and is expelling gas into the sky. It is a great sight.
The European Space Agency has a video that shows what the James Webb Space Telescope is seeing in the farthest reaches of the universe.

Unlike the legendary Hubble Space Telescope, which captures light we can see, the Webb telescope captures a different type of light. The longer light wavelength can slip through clouds of dust and gas and illuminate things that were previously obscured.
The director of the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee's planetarium said that it lifted the veil.
The telescope is not done yet. It will be able to see some of the oldest stars in the universe. It will show us what the atmospheres of exoplanets are made of.
Take a ride through the universe.
