Tag: James Webb Space Telescope

Astronomers found something so unexpected it actually creates problems for science.

Is there anything the Webb can't see?

Although we've looked at this corner of the universe before, we've never seen it so clearly.

The powerful space telescope used its potent infrared instruments to reveal unseen features from both Mars' surface and atmosphere.

It's the most detailed view of this nebula we've ever seen.

Unlike other observations of alien worlds, this is a direct image. It sets the stage for more exciting exoplanet research.

The galaxy's odd shape is owed to an ancient collission between two galaxies.

A speck of space rock just hit one of the telescope's mirrors, but everything is fine.

If they're like us, they'll likely be spewing out junk into their atmosphere.

We're almost there.

There's a way to go but things are progressing smoothly.

It's a major milestone, but it's still not ready for action just yet.

It's almost ready for launch!
